Mulberry Plantation, also known as the James and Mary Boykin Chesnut House, is a historic plantation south of Camden, South Carolina. Declared a National Historic Landmark in 2000, it is significant as the home of American Civil War chronicler Mary Boykin Chesnut, who produced some of the most important written accounts of the war from a Confederate perspective. The main house, built about 1820, is an example of Federal period architecture.
