The Governor's Palace was the official residence of the Governor of North Carolina during the Antebellum period. The governors and their families resided here from 1816 until 1865, when General William Tecumseh Sherman seized the palace during the Civil War and used it as his headquarters. It was demolished in 1885. Raleigh Memorial Auditorium was built on the original site of the palace.
