Historic Landmark District

Colonial Williamsburg is the private foundation representing the
historic district of the city of Williamsburg, Virginia. The district
includes buildings dating from 1699 to 1780 which made
colonial Virginia's capital. The capital straddled the boundary of
the original shires of Virginia — James City Shire and Charles
River Shire. For most of the 18th century, Williamsburg was the
center of government, education and culture in the Colony of
Virginia. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry,
James Monroe, James Madison, George Wythe, Peyton
Randolph, and others molded democracy in the Commonwealth
of Virginia and the United States here.
