Main Entrance to The Governor's Palace in Williamsburg, VA

The symbol of British authority in the colony and home to seven royal governors. The current building is a reconstruction that was completed in 1934 built on the foundations of the original Governor's Palace. The original building was constructed from 1706-1722 before being destroyed by a fire in 1781.

 

Note the Royal Coat of Arms above the gate at the entrance to the Governor's Palace.
