Aiken-Rhett House, Charleston SC
Visiting the Aiken-Rhett House is like stepping into a time machine and traveling back to the Old South of 1858, two years before the outbreak of the Civil War. The compound, which includes stables, kitchens and slave quarters, is one of the most complete and authentic recreations of urban life of slaves and slave master of the period.
