Built in 1852 as a middle-class farm house for the family of John and Mary Surratt, the historic Surratt House also served as a tavern and hostelry, a post office, and a polling place during the crucial decade before the Civil War. During the war, it became a safehouse in the Confederate underground system which flourished in Southern Maryland. Today, the museum presents a variety of programs and events, recapturing the history of the mid-19th-century life and focusing on the web of the Lincoln assassination conspiracy and the involvement of the Surratt family.

A second website, maintained by the Surratt Society, can be found here.

The site offers exhibits, tours, educational programs, research library access, and monthly recreational and educational events.

The Lee-Fendall House is an excellent resource for teachers of American and local history. The history of the Lee-Fendall House began in 1784, when Revolutionary War hero “Light Horse Harry” Lee, father of Confederate General Robert E. Lee sold the property to his cousin, and follows our nation’s struggles and successes from its early years as a republic through the tumultuous Civil War years when convalescing Union soldiers were housed here and into the 20th century when labor leader John L. Lewis bought the house. A beautiful collection of Lee family heirlooms and other period pieces produced by Alexandria craftsmen help to tell the story of early Victorian family life in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia.

The house is open for tours where guests are able to explore the stunningly restored house and award-winning gardens. Special events and lectures are regularly scheduled. Youth and scout programs can be arranged.
