National Historic Landmark- Beaufort Historic District

This coastal city, the second oldest town in the state, is marked by a distinctive style of Southern architecture, different from that of Savannah and Charleston.

Structures in the district date from the early 18th to mid-19th century; houses have 2-story porticoes or verandas, and airy, open interiors.
