Mini Guide to Raleigh Durham

Raleigh's historical legacy is preserved in a number of historical homes and gardens, most open to the public. Prime example of this is the city's Executive Mansion (200 North Blount Street), a 37,500 square foot residence dating from 1891.

Free guided tours are offered of the Mansion's grounds and first floor; the rest, being the home of the Governor of Raleigh, is off-limits for the time being. Mordecai Historic Park (1 Mimosa Street) used to be one of the largest plantations in the area; it's since been converted into a public amenity with slaveless flower and herb gardens, but there remains one reminder of the Park's past - Mordecai House, built in 1785 and the birthplace of American president Andrew Johnson. It's rumoured to be haunted. However, not even Mordecai House can claim to be the oldest dwelling in Raleigh. That title goes to the Joel Lane Museum House (720 West Hargett Street), going back to 1760. Lane was a plantation owner, and prominent player in the local politics of the time.

Today, costumed extras re-enact their way through the Lane Museum House's daily demonstrations, a small part of North Carolina as it used to be.
