Overview

The William Paca House & Garden is a National Historic Landmark, a Georgian mansion built in the 1760s by Declaration of Independence signer William Paca. Docent-led tours cover the rooms, and you can stroll the two-acre English-style garden with parterres, a wilderness garden, and a summerhouse over a fish-shaped pond. Historic Annapolis runs it and it is open spring through fall.
