We ended the Antebellum Trail in Athens, Georgia on day 4 before driving back to Jacksonville. We frolicked around historic downtown and the University of Georgia campus.
Most of the historic Antebellum mansions in Athens were acquired by the fraternities and sororities of UGA. The Greek organizations saved these Antebellum homes from falling into disrepair or being torn down. They are responsible for preserving the historical integrity of these homes, thus enabling us the ability to enjoy this essential part of Athens' history.
Of course we had to visit the Phi Mu house!
...and that brings us to the end of our Antebellum Trail tour! Hope you enjoyed it :)
