Linden, Federal style mansion in Natchez, US.

Linden is a two-story mansion at 1 Conner Circle in Natchez, about a mile and a half from downtown. Its central four-room section dates to 1785; later owners added an east wing, a living-room wing and a 98-foot front gallery carried on ten hand-hewn Doric columns. The carved front door is said to be inspired by Tara's door in Gone with the Wind, and jib windows open onto the gallery.

The central two-story, four-room section was built in 1785 as "Oaklands" for Alexander Moore and passed to his son James. Senator Thomas Buck Reed bought it in 1818, renamed it "Reedland" and added the frontispiece and East wing. Dr. John Ker, owner from 1829, renamed it "Linden" and added the living room wing and 98-foot gallery. Jane Gustine Conner bought it in 1849 and added the west wing and a two-story brick wing.

Dr. John Ker renamed the house Linden after the national tree of Germany, and the name has stayed with it since 1829. Jane Gustine Conner, who bought it in 1849 to be nearer town, planted the cedars in front of the house in 1850. The Conner family still owns it, now in its sixth generation.

This property is registered as a historic place, which means its original features are protected and maintained according to preservation standards. Visitors should check ahead for any access requirements or seasonal closures before planning a visit.

The front door is said to have been inspired by Tara's door in Gone with the Wind, and the house holds a painting by John James Audubon and a portrait of Swedish opera singer Jenny Lind. The current owner is the sixth generation of the Conner family to hold the property.
