Heritage Hall

Built in 1811 and expanded with Greek Revival columns in the 1840s or '50s by Dr. Elijah Jones, a wealthy physician who enslaved 114 people on his 3,000-acre property, Heritage Hall was moved 200 yards on logs pulled by horses and mules in 1909 when the original site was sold for a church. Now a house museum run by the Morgan County Historical Society, it's open for tours most days. At least four people are documented to have died in the home over the generations; visitors and docents describe children's laughter in the upstairs rooms and an unexplained blood stain on the fireplace mantel.
