Montaigne (Natchez, Mississippi)

Montaigne is a historic house in Natchez, Adams County, Mississippi.

[2] During the American Civil War of 1861–1865, the mansion was ravaged by Northerners and slaves, who smashed the chandeliers and cut the furniture to use it as firewood.

[2][3] However, after the war, Gen. Martin restored it, adding Chippendale furniture, wallpaper by Zuber & Cie, and Egyptian marble mantelpieces.
