Subaru Of Macon

At Macon's Hay House, a significant and stunning piece of history still stands in a most spectacular way. This incredible 18,000-square-foot antebellum mansion was originally built in 1855 and amazingly survived the War between the States. Its Renaissance Revival style is completed by several notable details that include carved plaster adorned with 24-karat gold leaves and colorful stained glass windows. Tours of this historic attraction are available year round at the top of the hour between 10am and 3pm. Call ahead or check the website for times or to make special arrangements for larger tours.

Echoes of the Civil War still resound in Macon at the historically-rich Cannonball House and Museum. See where an actual cannonball plummeted through the exterior of a white-columned Greek Revival-styled home that eventually stood as a symbol of the nation's struggle against itself. The house is directly adjacent to the Macon Confederate Museum that features actual weapons used in the Civil War, photos, artifacts, uniforms, and crystal and china pieces from the period.
