The Governor's Palace Gardens

Colonial Williamsburg - The Largest Living History Museum in the United States

The formal gardens in the Governor's Palace complex are part of the 90-acres of greens and gardens to be enjoyed at Colonial Williamsburg. Garden designs throughout Colonial Williamsburg range from classic formal to utilitarian.

Gardens played an important role in 18th-century Williamsburg, however, when the restoration of Williamsburg began, there was little documentation or physical evidence of the original gardens. A great amount of research was necessary to re-create the delightful gardens and greens that visitors are able to enjoy today.
