Jimmy Carter National Historical Park

Front view of the Jimmy Carter Boyhood Home in Archery, Georgia.
Few U.S. Presidents have had such close ties with where they were born and raised. The rural southern culture of Plains, Georgia, that revolves around farming, church and school, had a large influence in molding the character and in shaping the political policies of the 39th President of the United States.
