Robinson House, Historic mansion in Richmond, Virginia, United States
The Robinson House stands as an Italianate mansion on the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts campus, featuring a pyramidal belvedere and three-story architecture.
Constructed between 1845 and 1859 by banker Anthony Robinson Jr, the property transformed from a summer residence into a Confederate veterans home from 1884 to 1941.
The mansion served as an administration building, library, and museum for Confederate veterans, hosting up to 300 residents at its peak during its 56-year operation.
The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts operates the Robinson House as a visitor center with exhibition spaces that detail the property's extensive history.
The building underwent multiple transformations, from a private summer house to a veterans' home, scientific research facility, and finally a public cultural center.
