Among Fredericksburg’s most treasured landmarks stands St. James’ House, an elegant example of colonial architecture and a living testament to the city’s vibrant history. In conjunction with Historic Garden Week, we’re thrilled to invite you to our special Spring Opening to enjoy the enduring charm of one of the city’s most historic homes.
