Aristocrats from the Georgia sea coast, seeking a healthier
climate, selected the site of Roswell, and here, on the bluffs over looking the creeks of the Chattahoochee River, they built
their plantation homes in the early-19th century. Barrington King, co-founder of Roswell, selected the highest point in Roswell
for his home, Barrington Hall. It was built in the Greek Revival style of architecture and was completed in 1842. The home
remained in the hands of the Barrington King Family until 2002.
Barrington
Hall is listed on the National Register and was included in Atlanta magazine's list of the 50 Most Beautiful Homes in Metro
Atlanta.
In 2005, the home, its original furnishings, and all surrounding
grounds were purchased by the city of Roswell. The city is committed to ensuring Barrington Hall will be maintained as a historical
treasure and available to the public for historical, cultural and educational purposes.Barrington Hall is open to visitors every day except National Holidays. Tours start on the
hour. Visitors can purchase a “Passport” ticket which
will include admission to Barrington Hall as well as two other Roswell Antebellum homes, Bulloch Hall and Archibald Smith Plantation. Tickets are available for
