Description
Situated in Statesville and the Piedmont region of North Carolina near the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Fort Dobbs State Historic Site provides a window into the tumultuous period of history known as the French and Indian War (1754-1763) or Seven Years War.
As the only North Carolina Historic Site associated with the period, it represents North Carolina's link with a global war for empire that crossed five continents, lasted nearly a decade and sowed the seeds for independence.
Friends of Fort Dobbs, the not-for-profit support group supporting the Fort Dobbs State Historic Site, serves to advance the stated vision of the site which is “to educate all citizens of North Carolina and beyond about the history of Fort Dobbs and North Carolina’
