Bragg–Mitchell Mansion photo 1
The Bragg–Mitchell Mansion, a historic house museum in Mobile, Alabama, was constructed in 1855 by Judge John Bragg and is renowned for its striking Greek Revival architecture. This two-story mansion features a T-shaped plan, tall columns, and a three-sided veranda, making it one of the most photographed buildings in the city. The mansion has a rich history, including significant events during the American Civil War, such as the removal of its furnishings for safekeeping and the cutting of live oak trees for military strategy. The house remained in the Bragg family until 1880 and has since passed through several owners. Today, it attracts tourists and researchers alike, offering a glimpse into Alabama's architectural and historical heritage.
