HISTORIC WRIGHTSVILLE, INC.  

The Museum at Wrightsville is located in a house built in 1871, the former residence of John and Mary Redman. The house was given to Historic Wrightsville, Inc. in 1987 and since that time has served as the home of the organization which has done much to preserve the rich heritage of the town.

The first floor of the museum contains exhibit rooms housing permanent exhibits on the history of the town, including information on the different bridges at Wrightsville, and special rotating exhibits on particular aspects of local history.

 Knowledgeable docents are available to answer any questions concerning the town or the area. Also in the museum are:

• a small gift shop
• a library of books relating to aspects of the Civil War
• books and information on the Civil War in Wrightsville
• information on up-coming events and other special programs sponsored by Historic Wrightsville, such as fund raising events and sale items.
