John Taylow, architect, and one of the original signers of The Declaration of Independence, constructed this unique, upscale 18th century Inn in 1770. In the 1800’s, it served as the home of the mayor of Fredericksburg, Richard Johnston. The award winning Inn offers seven beautifully appointed guest rooms, 2 suites and caters to small, intimate weddings and other special events in our courtyard or parlors. The Richard Johnston Inn is located in the heart of Historic Fredericksburg, across the street from the Fredericksburg Visitors Center and just blocks away from historic sites such as Mary Washington’s House, Fredericksburg Museum, the Rising Sun Tavern, unique shops and a variety of wonderful restaurants
