The Holliday-Dorsey-Fife House in Fayetteville, Georgia, one block west of the city's courthouse square, was built in 1847. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.[1]

Description and history

It is an antebellum Greek Revival-style house. It was built in 1847, but a major renovation and expansion in 1855 created its current appearance. It was built for Dr. John Stiles Holliday who practiced medicine in the house from 1847 to 1865.[2]

The city of Fayetteville purchased the house in 1999 and it was subsequently used for a local history museum.[2]
