Ward Hall
Learn the history of this
12,000-square-foot villa, built for
$50,000 (which was paid in gold)
and completed in 1857. Here,
in one of the fi nest examples of
Greek Revival architecture, the
very saucy Sallie Ward once
held court, hosting lavish balls,
amassing a fortune by marrying
four millionaires and generally
scandalizing polite society.
Open the fi rst two weekends of
the month (Sat/Sun) from April
through November and tours by
appointment.
