 Memories of days
gone by are alive at Merrehope and F.W. Williams—both
historic homes in Meridian. Each home stands as a testament
to time.
Each speaks volumes about Meridian's history. Merrehope and
F.W. Williams are the only two historic homes open to the
public.
Merrehope is one of Meridian's only remaining Antebellum
homes - standing resolutely - despite General William T.
Sherman's Civil War claim that "Meridian no longer
exists."
 Victorian
F.W. Williams Home, circa 1886,
evokes an era of the fashionably rich. Elegant interior decorating
details reflect how no
expense was spared.
