Several towns in Mississippi are revered for their high concentration of historic sites, and Lexington is one of them. It’s not nearly as known as Natchez or Columbus – each of which boasts an abundance of historic buildings. However, with more than 200 historic sites, which run the gamut from buildings to brick-covered streets, it’s a must-visit for history buffs.
