Sorrel–Weed House, Greek Revival museum in Madison Square, Savannah, United States.
The Sorrel Weed House spans 16,000 square feet, featuring large porticos, ornamental details, and a combination of Greek Revival and Regency architectural elements.
Francis Sorrel, a prominent merchant, commissioned architect Charles Cluskey to build this residence in 1840, which later received Georgia State Landmark status in 1954.
Confederate General Robert E Lee stayed at this residence in 1861, while General Moxley Sorrel wrote influential Civil War memoirs within these walls.
