Arts & Culture
24
The Joseph Manigault House is an outstanding example of the Adam Style of architecture in its plan, interior detail, and decoration. It was designed by Gabriel Manigault, Charleston's most famous amateur architect, for his brother Joseph Manigault, who acquired the lot in 1802 and built the house a short time later. The lot, once part of a tract formerly known as Wraggsborough, had belonged to Joseph Manigault's mother, Mrs. Peter Manigault, who inherited it from her father Joseph Wragg.
