Liberty Hall in Crawfordville, Georgia was the home and estate of Alexander Hamilton Stephens, a longtime U.S. Congressman who went on to become Vice-President of the Confederate States of America. Stephens resided at Liberty Hall from 1834 until his death in 1883 (at which time he was the Governor of Georgia). In 1875 he tore down an earlier house to build the current structure, which has in recent years been restored to its 1875 appearance.

Liberty Hall and other nearby structures from the Stephens estate are all part of the A. H. Stephens Memorial State Park, a 1,177 acre (4.76 km²) park and museum. In 1970, the structure was declared a U.S. National Historic Landmark (NHL), and as such is also on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP)

A monument on the lawn in front of Liberty Hall marks the final resting place of Alexander H. Stephens.
