Colonial Williamsburg – Virginia

Images of Colonial Williamsburg – Eastern Virginia, taken in July 2022.

The Colonial Williamsburg historic district is a living-history museum with restored or re-created buildings from the 17th-century and beyond and an atmosphere revolving around the 18th-century.

When the Jamestown statehouse burned down on October 20,1689 the Virginia capitol was moved to Williamsburg the following year. Williamsburg hosted the capitol for 81 years after which it was moved to Richmond, its current location, in 1780. After the move, Williamsburg entered a period of stagnation but was eventually restored as Colonial Williamsburg with the help of John D. Rockefeller Jr.
