The Washington County Historical Society in Plymouth, NC is dedicated to preserving and celebrating the rich history of Washington County through its two main attractions: The Port o Plymouth Museum and The Davenport Homestead. The museum, housed in a historic 1923 train depot, showcases the county's unique past, while the Davenport Homestead, dating back to 1790, stands as the oldest surviving homestead in the region.

With annual events like Living History Weekend, the society offers engaging opportunities for visitors to immerse themselves in North Carolina's Civil War history. Through educational programs, exhibits, and community events, the Washington County Historical Society continues to honor and share the heritage of the area for generations to come.
