Agecroft Hall

Built in the 15th century, this English manor home was dismantled, transported to Richmond and totally reconstructed in 1928. Note the leaded glass windows, original Tudor and Stuart artifacts, authentic furnishings and formal gardens. Info: 804-353-4241.

Carillon
Between 1924 and 1928,
the Virginia General Assembly acted to create a War Memorial Commission and build a lasting memorial to the heroic efforts of Virginia’s World War I servicemen and servicewomen. The City donated a building site in Byrd Park. The War Memorial Carillon was built by John Taylor Bell Founders of England and contains 53 bells. The carillon is played on special occasions. Carillon concerts are usually played on veteran-related holidays (Memorial Day, Veteran’s Day, Flag Day and Labor Day) and a spring series of concerts have been funded in the past by the Carillon Civic Association. Memorial concerts may be arranged by calling 804-646-1437.
