Founded in 1773, the Charleston Museum is the oldest museum in the United States. And is dedicated to preserving America’s colonial and national history.

After eating lunch in a quaint local cafe, take a guided tour of the Nathaniel Russell House. This Georgian-style mansion was built in the early 1800s, and the Aiken-Rhett House offered a glimpse of upper-class life in the 18th century. And, coming this spring, the International African American Museum debuts at Gadsden’s Wharf. What was once the epicenter of the slave trade is now a site that celebrates the rich history and heritage of the African diaspora. This museum explores the lasting influence of African American culture and the legacy of the movements for justice and equality in the United States.
