Summary

Significance: Built between 1851 and 1857 for wealthy cotton broker, the palatial proportions of this house and the variety of its Victorian detail represent antebellum opulence rarely achieved and more rarely maintained. Stanton Hall dominates an urban hilltop site a full block square. In the summer of 1863, after the occupation of Natchez by Federal troops, Union Army flags were raised here.
