where is the jefferson monticello
Monticello is the only historic home in the United States designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Guided tours of the house -- and of the scenic gardens and grounds provide unparalleled access to the life, times and legacies of Jefferson and those who lived and worked at the plantation.
Monticello is the largest population center in Jefferson County. Historically, the City of Monticello has no equal in Northern Florida. Nestled among the tree lined streets of Monticello are many antebellum homes which provide a unique look and feel to the city. During the depression of the 1930s, many of the residents of Monticello could not afford to build new homes and the houses were renovated or restored.
