Supplemental and Contact Information

Section/Unit Description:

European settlement near the Pamlico River in the 1690s led to the founding of Bath, North Carolina's first town, in 1705. By 1708, Bath had 50 people and 12 houses, and soon became North Carolina's first port. While its early years were marked by political rivalries, Indian wars, and piracy, by 1746 Bath was considered for the colony's capital. However, when the county government moved away in the late 1700s, Bath lost most of its importance and trade. Its original town limits encompass a historic district today. At Historic Bath, visitors can visit three historic homes, the Exhibit Center, a 1-mile walking tour, and an orientation film in the Visitor's Center. St. Thomas's Church is also open to the public.
