Longwood in Natchez, Mississippi, is a historic antebellum mansion known for its distinctive octagonal shape and its unfinished interior. Construction began in 1860 but was halted in 1861 due to the outbreak of the Civil War, leaving the upper floors incomplete. The mansion was designed by Philadelphia architect Samuel Sloan for cotton planter Dr. Haller Nutt and his family.
