Thanks American Battlefield Trust for the great suggestion and for the opportunity to partner on this incredible project. Happy 250th!
Heading to the Tar Heel State for the Fourth of July? Be sure to check out the North Carolina History Explorer! The first-of-its-kind kiosk transports viewers to the historic sites, battlefields, events and stories that shaped the state’s early history through maps, photography and other multimedia content meant to cultivate curiosity and entice travelers to seek out those places for themselves.
We just cut the ribbon for the first interactive kiosk in Charlotte, with one coming to every welcome center in the state over the coming weeks!
The North Carolina History Explorer was developed by the American Battlefield Trust in collaboration with Interactive Knowledge of Charlotte, N.C., the North Carolina Department of Commerce and America 250 NC, a program of the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.
