Come experience life from a simpler time at Brunswick Town/Fort Anderson State Historic Site on November 2, 2013 for Colonial Day at Brunswick Town. Living historians, dressed in 18th century attire, will demonstrate what life was once like in this early port town on the lower Cape Fear. This free public event will be held from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Visitors will have the opportunity to learn about 18th century electrical experiments, visit with the colonial dentist, take a turn in the stocks and pillory, try their hand at the militia drill, dip their own beeswax candle, and much more!
The goal of Brunswick Town/Ft. Anderson State Historic Site is to preserve and interpret the history of Brunswick Town, the Cape Fear region’s first permanent settlement, and Fort Anderson, the Civil War fortification built at the site. It is located at 8884 St. Philips Rd. SE, Winnabow, NC 28479.
