Coronavirus Precautions

Governor Roy Cooper has extended the modified Stay at Home order for the entire state of North Carolina through Friday, Jan. 29, at the earliest. All individuals must stay at home between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m., and face masks are still required in public places.

If traveling, individuals are encouraged to check with local tourism organizations to determine if any limitations are in place (e.g., visitor center closures), and to contact lodging establishments directly for their most up-to-date information. Please use your best judgment if traveling, and practice good hygiene while avoiding close contact with others.

More information about local restaurant resources specific to North Carolina destinations can be found via their local tourism organization, which can be found here. Visit Count On Me NC to see a list of businesses – restaurants, lodging, attractions and others – that have completed the Count On Me NC training, as these businesses are making a concerted effort to help keep everyone safe and healthy. As a guest, you can take your own pledge, too, to show you're doing your part.

In March 1865, the Battle of Averasboro was the first deliberate, tactical resistance to the infamous march of Federal forces through the Carolinas and Georgia. Come experience history through our displays of artifacts, facts, maps and much more. Explore the grounds to learn more about what took place on this hallowed ground.
Outside, historic markers outline the events of March 1865 military action, the prelude to Bentonville. The museum outlines the conflict and contains artifacts from the battle found on the battlefield.

Annual living history events and reenactments are held here, too, so please check our website for upcoming events.
