=Jefferson's Monticello: = =Virtual Tour =



**- Monticello was home to Thomas Jefferson: author of the Declaration of Independence, founder of the Republican Party, America's 3rd President, and owner of over 100 African slaves. Jefferson was a perfect example of the early American contradiction: a champion of freedom and liberty, a plantation owner in rural Virginia. His Monticello homestead is both a symbol of his power and oppression for early American peoples. ** [|Monticello Virtual Tour] - Please visit the following link and take a virtual tour of Monticello.
