RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - Richmond is known for its rich history, and now a piece of that history is back in the commonwealth.
The only surviving judicial robe of Chief Justice John Marshall is back on display.
Since the early 2000s, the John Marshall robe has been taken down because it was too fragile, but since its recent conservation, the robe has returned in a 7-foot wide, 6-foot tall glass display.
