Purportedly home to countless ghosts and legends, this museum and historical landmark is one of the oldest buildings in Charleston. The historic attraction's tales of pirates, patriots, elegant Southern ladies and countless African slaves are told by the costumed docent guides as visitors explore the elegant Palladian exchange and the dank, barrel-vaulted dungeon. Many consider the Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon, built on the site of the 17th-century Half-Moon Bastion, to be one of the most historically significant buildings in all of early colonial America. Be sure to check out the site's webpage at www.oldexchange.org for seasonal events and more information!
