Home to the colony’s first (and later third) governor, the Leonard Calvert House was one of the largest wooden structures in colonial Maryland that, at varying times, also functioned as a statehouse, an ordinary, and the fortified center of a short-lived rebellion. Join Historic St. Mary’s City Chief Archaeologist Travis Parno to learn about the history of this important site, reviewing the results of nearly 40 years of on-site archaeology and examining some of Historic St. Mary’s City’s recent research into the property’s rich history.
