The home of
Thomas Jefferson located in
Charlottesville, VA. Construction of the house started in 1769. Monticello is a fine example of Roman neoclassicism architectural style, with a total of 43 rooms in the entire structure. It is the only house in America on the
United Nations' prestigious World Heritage List of sites that must be protected at all costs. To see a depiction of it, look at the back of a
nickel.
