The Halifax State Historic Site is a historic site in Halifax, North Carolina. It tells of the colorful history of the area, which dates back to its peak during the American Revolutionary War period.
Back in the day, the town of Halifax was once a commercial and political center of the region. It was where the Fourth Provincial Congress took place in 1776. It was also the home of the ?Halifax Resolves?, which is the first official action taken by a colony that recommends independence from England.
There are several historic structures on the site, dating back to the mid 1700s. It is currently available for walking tours and picnicking. It is open on Tuesdays through Saturdays from 9 am to 5 pm.
