The Craik-Patton House is an outstanding example of American Greek Revival architecture. Built near the Kanawha River in 1834 by James Craik, it has been restored as a museum house by The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America in the State of West Virginia. The house is furnished as it might have appeared in 1834; one room is furnished in a later period to reflect the ownership of George Smith Patton, a leader in the Confederate Army, and the grandfather of General George S. Patton of World War II fame.
The house is owned and maintained by The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America in the State of West Virginia.
