Antebellum Plantation & Farmyard
The Antebellum Plantation at Stone Mountain Park is a collection of original buildings from around the State of Georgia, built between 1783 and 1875. Each structure was moved from its original site and carefully restored to preserve its authenticity and historical value.
This fascinating area also houses the most extensive collection of period furniture and decorations in the south, reflecting the diverse lifestyles of 18th and 19th century Georgia residents.
Take a self-guided tour and enjoy the sights and smells of the working cookhouse and garden where demonstrators preserve the timeless culinary traditions of the south.
Be sure to visit the Farmyard where kids can pet the animals, work with our trainers to learn about animal behavior and come to understand the role of livestock in early Georgia life. The Plantation also hosts several special events, including occasional Military Drills by the 42nd GA Unit, Sheep Shearing Day, Stone Mountain Indian Festival & Pow-Wow and A Homespun Christmas.
Please note: Direct access to some of the historical buildings is limited by stairs.
