Red Hill Patrick Henry National Memorial

Red Hill in Virginia preserves the final home and burial place of Patrick Henry, who retired there in 1794 and lived on the working tobacco plantation with his family until his death in 1799. Near Brookneal on the Staunton River, the site now includes restored and reconstructed buildings, Henry’s grave, a museum, and a broader plantation landscape that interprets transportation, agriculture, and community life. Managed by the Patrick Henry Memorial Foundation, it also preserves the Quarter Place, where enslaved and later free Black residents lived, including a large cemetery. Red Hill holds a major collection of Patrick Henry artifacts and presents both his legacy and the plantation world around him.
