In many ways, Charleston is defined by the landmarks within its city proper. From the site where the first shots of the Civil War rung out, to the expertly preserved antebellum mansions that have survived a great earthquake or the centuries old oak tree that stands 65 feet tall – Charleston is home to magnificent markers, each with their own extraordinary story.
