Its rich history, breathtaking nature, vibrant community, and eclectic mix of attractions make it a captivating destination for visitors and a lovely place to call home.
Founded in 1857, Leesburg’s history is deeply intertwined with Florida’s development.

Today, the city carefully preserves its historic buildings and landmarks as a testament to its proud past.
The Historic Mote-Morris House is one such iconic structure. Built in 1892, this Queen Anne-style house has survived relocation and a fire, proudly standing as a symbol of Leesburg’s resilience.

Spanning over 300 acres, the reserve offers trails for hiking and biking, a butterfly garden, and a dog park. It’s also a haven for bird-watchers, with over 160 species of birds spotted on the grounds.
