The R.E. Lee Camp Hall is a classic Greek Revival residence located at 806 Prince Street in Alexandria. Built in 1852 the building was once the residence of Dr Parson Johnson before being converted into a hospital during the Civil War. The hospital was managed by Union troops and was used to treat many sick and wounded soldiers. In 1903 the building was then acquired as the hall of the R.E. Lee Camp Confederate Veterans and was honored in Robert E. Lee. The building which has since being converted into the R.E. Lee Camp Hall Museum is now owned and operated by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. The museum comprises of Civil War artifacts and personal items belonging to Mr Lee and his family. Some items at the museum include stirrups which were once owned by J.E.B. Stuart, campaign chair used by Lee and a wooden directors style chair.

The Museum is open periodically to the public.
