Charlottesville and Thomas Jefferson
The Charlottesville area produced 3 of the first 5
Presidents of the United States: Thomas Jefferson
(1743-1826), James Madison (1751-1836) and James Monroe (1758-1831). The 2 most
visited sites are Monticello and the University of Virginia, both designed by
Thomas Jefferson, and 2 of only 4 works of architecture in the country to be
included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The Jeffersonian style, or Classical
Revival, was inspired by Roman classical orders. The Virginia state capitol in
Richmond (1798) was based on the Maison Carrée, a
Roman temple in Nîmes, France.
