University of Virginia Rotunda - a photo on Flickriver

            The University of Virginia (UVA) is located in Charlottesville.  It was founded in 1819 by Thomas Jefferson.

The university (and Monticello) are one of only three UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the US.

My son, Brian, and his family are standing in front of the Rotunda, which was designed by Thomas Jefferson and completed in 1826.  It is an example of Palladian architecture. 

The Rotunda is one of the original buildings and was the library.  It is the centerpiece of the lawn.

Brian and his wife, Megan, met while students at UVA.
