Public Symposium to celebrate Clemson Hanover House’s 300th year

Clemson University marks the 300th birthday of its oldest structural resident, Hanover House, with a public symposium featuring guest speakers from architecture and academics on Saturday, May 21 at the Strom Thurmond Institute on campus. Hanover House, a white home built in the early 1700s in South Carolina’s Lowcountry, was saved from destruction and brought to the Clemson campus by faculty and students in 1941. On the campus of Clemson University, home to the state’s architecture school, it was relocated to the South Carolina Botanical Garden in 1994 and now overlooks an heirloom vegetable garden.
