Magnolia Hall

Historic Magnolia Hall is located in the hills of Santee, Carolian in the United States. It was built by Isaac Barnes in 1821 and added onto in 1855 and 1860 by Dr. Swepson Saunders. He bought this property in 1853.

Magnolia Hall was threatened by Brigadier General. Edward E. Potter of Union troops in 1865. Dr. Saunder’s slave cook saved the actions who had taken refuge somewhere between Hagnolia Hall and Stateburg.

On 2nd September, 1999 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. Now it is known as the Dr. Swepson Saunders House also.
