Bulloch Hall


Bulloch Hall is located at Bulloch Avenue in Roswell, Georgia and is approximately half an hour from Atlanta. The house was built in 1839 by Major James Stephens Bulloch, who was one of the first settlers in Roswell. Visitors can come here between 10am and 3pm Monday to Saturday and 1pm to 3pm on Sundays throughout the year except on public holidays.

The Bulloch family has a rich history that can be explored at Bulloch Hall through guided tours lasting 45 minutes and starting on the hour. The dining room here was the setting for Major Bulloch's first daughter, Mittie's wedding to Theodore Roosevelt Sr. Their son Theodore, went on to become the 26th President of the United States. The museum room provides more information about Mittie's life here and her son's visit as President in 1905.

Youngsters can participate in an interactive experience through the children's museum room, where they can learn about the Bulloch and Roosevelt families and dress in antebellum clothing. Slaves lived in separate quarters, which are recreated here and show visitors how African-American slaves served Roswell in the 19th century. After visiting the house visitors can find several eateries nearby such as Nagoya Japanese Seafood in King Street or J Christopher's in Atlanta Street.
