Fort Hill, also known as the John C. Calhoun House and Library, is a National Historic Landmark on the Clemson University campus in Clemson, South Carolina, United States. From 1825-1850, the house was the home of noted proponent of constitutional Nullification, John C. Calhoun, the 7th Vice President of the United States. Clemson University was established on the Fort Hill plantation site in 1889, and in accordance with the terms of its inheritance, has maintained the house and its immediate parcel as a museum and library — all that remains of what originally was an approximately 1,000 acre plantation estate.
