Monmouth, Greek Revival mansion in Natchez, United States.

Monmouth is a two-story mansion with square columns, symmetrical facades, and stucco-covered brick construction set on 26 acres. The building blends different architectural styles and displays the typical form of a wealthy property from the 1800s.

John Hankinson, a postmaster, lawyer and steamboat entrepreneur, built Monmouth in 1818 during the depression that followed the War of 1812, naming it after his home, Monmouth County, New Jersey. John Quitman bought the property in 1826 and in 1853 renovated it in the Greek Revival style: the original brick was covered with scored stucco and a portico with four square columns was added to the front. Quitman died at Monmouth on July 17, 1858.

The site displays original and reconstructed areas that reveal how people lived on a plantation before the Civil War. Visitors can see the different spaces where inhabitants worked and spent their daily lives.

The property operates as a luxury hotel with rooms, a restaurant, and a bar, so visitors can explore the grounds and interior. Guided tours are available during the day and provide deeper insight into the history and architectural details.

Monmouth's exterior inspired the design of Tara in the 1939 film Gone with the Wind. The house also holds Quitman memorabilia recovered by restorers Ronald and Lani Riches, including the gold sword presented to him by James K. Polk and Congress for his Mexican-American War service, and the red handkerchief he used to rally his troops.
