Denmark Vesey House, Historic house on Bull Street in Charleston, United States.

The Denmark Vesey House at 56 Bull Street is a single-story wood-frame structure set sideways to the street. Its narrow street facade has two windows, while a porch runs along the front of the longer west side, with two doors entering from the porch. The front portion holds three rooms side by side and the rear addition four more.

The building received National Historic Landmark status in 1976 as recognition of Charleston's history. Research in the 1980s revealed, however, that the structure was built after events of 1822.

The name recalls Denmark Vesey, a free Black abolitionist hanged in Charleston on July 2, 1822, after authorities uncovered a planned slave uprising; his body was never found. The 1976 landmark designation rests on a later-disproved link to his home, so the site now marks how the city has remembered him.

The house stands at 56 Bull Street, oriented sideways to the street, so the narrow two-window facade faces the roadway while the porch runs along the longer west side. The interior is not open to the public; the exterior can be viewed from the public street. The nearby Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture holds related exhibits.

The building carries its name despite research showing the person it honors never lived there. It retained its protected status anyway, making it an intriguing case in how sites are remembered.
