Relive History in Colonial

Williamsburg

Think of Williamsburg, and visions of colonial life

and the struggle for American independence spring

to mind. From 1699 to 1780, Williamsburg was the

political, social and cultural capital of Great Britain’s

largest, wealthiest and most populous North

American Colony.

Today, the town of Colonial Williamsburg, the

most comprehensive 18th century living history

museum in the world, continues to fascinate

visitors. Reconstructed with a meticulous eye for

authenticity, Colonial Williamsburg comprises over

300 acres and more than 500 historic buildings,

gardens and public greens, and offers a full

schedule of lectures,

concerts, theatrical

performances and

militia exhibitions.

Costumed interpreters

carry on their trades

and re-enact or

describe aspects of

colonial life for visitors.

Also located within

Colonial Williamsburg’s

historic area are

the DeWitt Wallace

Decorative Arts

Museum and Abby

Aldrich Rockefeller Folk

Art Museum, which

allow visitors a rare

glimpse of private and

important collections

of folk art, British/

American antiques and

decorative art from the

17th, 18th and 19th

centuries.
