La Veille, or La Veille Place, is a historic home located at Mutual, Calvert County, Maryland, United States. It is a 1 12-story gambrel-roofed brick house, of Flemish bond construction. A number of early-19th-century outbuildings include: a log corn crib, three barns (one of which still houses its 19th-century tobacco prise equipment), several small sheds, and a frame house that was created by the joining together of two 18th-century log slave quarters. Between the "Quarters" and the main house is the La Veille family cemetery, enclosed within an elaborate late-19th-century wrought iron fence.[2]

La Veille was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[1]
