There are more people in NC than anywhere in the world from Celtic origin. Very interesting to see and learn about the early Scottish immigrants, and how they interacted with the Cherokee people.
A museum dedicated to the history and heritage of the Scottish Tartan. It focuses on the history of Scottish Highland clothing, and covers the emigrant experience into North Carolina. It contains the official registry of all publicly known tartans, and is the American extension of the Scottish Tartans Society in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Museum that traces the origins & modern day uses of classic Scottish tartan with loads of Scotland history. Only $4 to get in, plan to spend about 90 minutes here.
Come learn about the use of the tartans - specially woven fabrics - used by the different Clans in Scotland. Our museum has the most tartans of any outside of Scotland, as well as exhibits and a gift shop to find the special tartan from your ancestors.
