Slave quarters in the United States
Antebellum residential vernacular architecture / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Slave quarters in the United States, sometimes called slave cabins, were a form of residential vernacular architecture constructed during the era of slavery in the United States. These outbuildings were the homes of the enslaved people attached to an American plantation, farm, or city property. Some former slave quarters were continuously occupied and used as personal residences until as late as the 1960s.[2]
For the quarters where enslaved people were held before sale at auction, see slave pen.
