Set on a hilltop near Charlottesville, Virginia, Monticello was the home Thomas Jefferson designed and rebuilt over roughly four decades, beginning in the 1768 and continuing well into the 1800s. Jefferson drew on classical Roman and Palladian models, and the house's dome, terraces, and wide sightlines reflect his interest in architecture as a expression of reason and order. He spent much of his life here, farming the surrounding land with enslaved labor, and the estate today stands as both a landmark of American design and a site where that history of slavery is interpreted for visitors.
