Andrew Johnson's Birthplace

The historical marker is located at 123 Fayetteville Street in Raleigh. About a block away, across the street from the North Carolina Capitol, near the corner of East Morgan and South Wilmington streets is the marker.

Andrew Johnson was born on December 29, 1808 in Raleigh, North Carolina in the kitchen of an inn where his parents worked. This structure was removed from the original site and is now located in a park elsewhere in Raleigh. It is open to the public to visit. The original birthplace location is marked with a sign by the North Carolina Office of Archives and History.

The building in which Andrew Johnson was born at 123 Fayetteville Street was moved to Mordecai Historic Park.
