About Archibald Smith Plantation Home

Set on the Roswell City Hall grounds, this 1845 farmhouse was built for the Archibald Smith family and is one of the city's historic house museums. The remaining land of an original 300-acre farm surrounds the house and outbuildings amid wooded landscaping, directly across from Roswell's Canton Street historic district. The house museum is currently closed for repairs, but the grounds remain open to visitors with outdoor spaces and wooden pathways. The site also hosts outdoor events and rentals.
