State Historic Sites Our historic sites, scattered across the state from Manteo at the coast to Weaverville in the west, offer you the chance to step back in time and experience the places where our state's most significant historical events happened first-hand. At our historic sites, walk through a home transformed into a field hospital during North Carolina's largest Civil War battle, see the Asheville boarding house that inspired one of the Tar Heel State's most famous writers, pan for gold at the site of America's first gold rush and much more. Each of our 27 historic sites tells an important story from North Carolina's past, but taken together they tell the story of North Carolina's diverse people and places from early Native American settlement to the Old North State's role in World War II.
