About the venue
Few venues in Washington carry as much history as Decatur House. Built in 1818–1819 for Commodore Stephen Decatur, a celebrated naval hero of the Barbary Wars and the War of 1812, it was the first private residence built on Lafayette Square, standing just steps from the White House. Decatur commissioned Benjamin Henry Latrobe, one of America's first professional architects, to design a home "fit for entertaining." Decatur and his wife Susan hosted lavish parties there for just 14 months before he was killed in a duel in 1820. The house went on to house prominent figures including Secretaries of State Henry Clay and Martin Van Buren, and today it's one of only three surviving Latrobe-designed buildings in the country. It's now preserved as a museum by the White House Historical Association, led by UA alum Stewart McLaurin.
Come celebrate what it means to be part of the Crimson Tide family in D.C. Roll Tide!
