The John Marshall House, built in 1790 in the fashionable Court End neighborhood of Richmond, was the home of the Great Chief Justice for forty-five years. Listed on the National and Virginia Historic Registers, the John Marshall House has undergone remarkably few changes since Marshall’s lifetime. The house contains many original Marshall family pieces and the largest collection of Richmond made federal furnishings. Your guided tour of Marshall’s home will remove you from the bustling 21st century urban center of downtown Richmond into a time when the river city was just beginning to flourish as the new Capital of Virginia and the Court End neighborhood was a popular location to live. You can enjoy a guided tour of the house, take a stroll through the colorful garden, visit the museum shop or play a round of quoits (John Marshall's favorite game).

John Marshall House

Come see the oldest surviving brick structure in the City of Richmond, built for John Marshall and his family in 1790. The site, occupied by the Marshalls and 8-16 enslaved laborers, allows guests to enter the complex yet intriguing world of Richmond in the Early Republic. Learn about the Chief Justice’s legal impact, explore an incredibly preserved historic house and its furnishings, and learn the stories of those who endured and resisted during slavery on site. The John Marshall House is located in Richmond’s historic Court End district and is minutes away from the Virginia State Capitol and the Valentine Museum. Guided tours are available from 10:00am to 5:00pm Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from March–December.

Established in 2013, the gallery features contemporary art exhibitions and performance events by regional and international artists.
