Lichtin Plaza
Built in 1855, Historic Oak View is a farmstead and national historic monument in Raleigh that is frequented by thousands of visitors from far and wide. Set amidst an estate area that spans over 15 acres (6.1 hectares), a glimpse of the majestic house from its gates is truly a sight to behold. The house currently functions as a museum that offers insight into the history of farming. Special events such as storytelling festivals and agricultural meets are regularly held here.
