Monmouth Historic Inn

Monmouth Historic Inn is one of the most monumental mansions in Natchez. The masculine strength of its design reflects both the forceful character of its most famous owner, General and subsequent Governor John A. Quitman, and the power of the Greek Revival style he chose for its ca. 1853 remodeling.
The home was built about 1818 for John Hankinson, an early Natchez postmaster who was a native of Monmouth County, New Jersey. Quitman, then a Natchez attorney, purchased the home in 1826. Daily 10 AM and 2 PM tour of the historic property may be purchased at the home.
