Aduston Hall, Greek Revival house in Gainesville, Alabama.
Aduston Hall features a rectangular central block with H-shaped wings and a temple-style pedimented Doric portico at its entrance.
Built between 1844 and 1846, Aduston Hall served as a summer residence for Amos Travis, who sought relief from Mobile's climate conditions.
The property maintains five original outbuildings from the 19th century, representing the complete layout of an antebellum plantation in the American South.
The building now functions as a visitor welcome center for the Gainesville Historic District and opens its doors during the annual Sumter Heritage Days.
Despite following Greek Revival principles, the house differs from typical examples with its low, spread-out, single-story structure spanning the property.
