Lemuel P. Grant Mansion, Antebellum mansion in Grant Park neighborhood, Atlanta, United States

The three-story Italianate mansion features buff stucco exterior walls measuring two feet thick, ten-foot windows, and nine separate fireplaces throughout the structure.

Built in 1856 by railroad magnate Lemuel P. Grant, the mansion survived the 1864 burning of Atlanta as Union troops spared it due to its use as a Confederate hospital.

The Atlanta Preservation Center maintains its headquarters in the mansion, organizing educational programs about local architectural heritage and preservation techniques.

Visitors interested in exploring the mansion need to contact the Kenan Research Center at the Atlanta History Center to arrange access to the property.

The mansion holds distinction as the 1902 birthplace of golf champion Bobby Jones, who later founded the Masters Tournament and shaped professional golf.
