Where were the bathing facilities and privies?
There were five privies (toilets) in and adjoining the main house. Two were located at the north and south ends of the “all-weather passageway” that connects the cellars to the kitchen and stable wings. Two inside the house were located off the first- and second-floor south stair passages and a third was connected to Jefferson’s bedroom. (See article on Monticello’s privies.
