Endroit historique bien, mais avec une présentation en partie révisionniste. Les infrastructures commencent à être désuètes. Le financement étatique y fait de plus en plus visiblement défaut.

Wonder how cigarettes became a part of American life? The answers are HERE. Great little video, excellent museum. LEAVE A good DONATION if you can b/c this educational place is fab - NO, I dont work there. I live in AZ and we stumbled on this informative place while visiting our soldier at Fort Bragg. Gift shop lacks but everything else is eye-opening.

Everybody knows about Duke University, but of you ever wondered why the University was named after the family? I did so I took this free tour of the family homestead that answered all of my questions. Like jow they made the transformation from farmer to ballers. What they did differently that made them successful and how they spent their money.

This a historical site. The Duke family farmed at this farm. Then they figured out that the real $s was in the sale of tobacco products soooo they stopped growing tobacco & started buying tobacco from other farmers & then producing cigarettes & other tobacco products. ... the rest of this story is ..well . history.

The museum is a very interesting look on the history and growth of the tobacco industry in the area. While neat, the grounds are where Duke Homestead really shines. They do a great job of maintaining the land and buildings - making the walk around feel like walking back a ways in time.

Traces the important history of tobacco production and manufacture in the state of NC through a movie, indoor exhibits, and preserved buildings. Friendly staff, be sure to take the guided tour.

We went here for Pork, Pickles and Pie. The museum was informative, the house interpretation was great and historically accurate and my kids enjoyed getting to taste various pies.

It is a small spot but has significant history of actual buildings that started the American Tobacco Company. It was well worth a couple of hours.

Great information, lots to read and learn. The museum is quite large and has a great deal of older products. The homestead itself is very pretty.
