Woodlawn is a historic house located in Fairfax County, Virginia. Originally a part of Mount Vernon, George Washington's historic plantation estate, it was subdivided in the 19th century by abolitionists to demonstrate the viability of a free labor system. The address is now 9000 Richmond Highway, Alexandria, Virginia, but due to expansion of Fort Belvoir and reconstruction of historic Route 1, access is via Woodlawn Road slightly south of Jeff Todd Way/State Route 235. The house is a designated National Historic Landmark, primarily for its association with the Washington family, but also for the role it played in the historic preservation movement. It is now a museum property owned and managed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

  • Woodlawn ist ein historisches Haus in Fairfax County, Virginia. Es war ursprünglich ein Teil der historischen Plantage Mount Vernon, dem Landsitz von George Washington. Woodlawn wurde erbaut von 1800 bis 1805 für den Neffen von George Washington Lawrence Lewis und seine Braut (Washingtons Stiefenkelin), Eleanor “Nelly” Custis Lewis. Auf Washingtons Bitte hin wurde es entworfen von William Thornten, dem Architekten des Kapitols. Während die Familie Lewis das Haus bewohnte gehörten zu dem Anwesen 2.000 Hektar (810 ha) Land, welches das Paar von Washington als Hochzeitsgeschenk bekommen hatte, es arbeiteten dort über 100 Personen, darunter circa 90 Sklaven. Woodlawn ist auf einem Hügel gelegen, von dem aus man Mount Vernon sehen kann. (de)
