Asa Holt House

Asa Holt House

The Asa Holt House is a Greek Revival structure on Mulberry Street. Asa Holt was a planter and owner of slaves, some of whom stayed at this property. On July 30, 1864, a shell from U.S. artillery on Dunlap Ridge hit the house. After the United Daughters of the Confederacy purchased the property in the 1960s, they intentionally changed the terminology from Asa Holt to Cannonball House.
