点评:The Manigault House Museum is a wonderful place to explore Charleston’s rich history, and it’s very easy and convenient to visit thanks to its central location in the city. The home is beautifully furnished with original family pieces — including elegant furniture, fine china, silverware, and paintings — that give a true sense of what life was like in the early 19th century.
Our docent was absolutely fantastic — incredibly knowledgeable and engaging, bringing the history of the house and the Manigault family to life. We were lucky to arrive on a quiet weekday in October and ended up getting a private tour, which made the experience even more special. The authenticity of the furnishings was confirmed by a period-painting that featured the actual clock that was on the current mantel in the dining room we visited. That alone is worth seeing.
Highly recommend for anyone interested in Charleston’s history or looking for an easy, rewarding stop while exploring the city.
翻译:马尼戈特故居博物馆是探索查尔斯顿悠久历史的绝佳去处,由于地处市中心,参观起来非常便捷。博物馆内陈设精美,摆放着家族珍藏的原始物品,包括优雅的家具、精美的瓷器、银器和绘画作品,真实地展现了19世纪初的生活景象。
我们的讲解员非常出色,知识渊博,引人入胜,生动地讲述了这座房子和马尼戈特家族的历史。我们很幸运地在十月一个安静的工作日抵达,并获得了一次私人导览,这让这次体验更加特别。一幅描绘我们参观的餐厅壁炉架上时钟的时代绘画,证实了家具的真实性。仅凭这一点就值得一看。
强烈推荐给所有对查尔斯顿历史感兴趣,或在探索这座城市时寻找轻松惬意的驻足点的人们。
