Review & FAQ:

Housed inside a building that was constructed in the late 19th century, the Ocracoke Preservation Museum is the place to go for anyone interested in learning about the rich history of Ocracoke Island. Hours vary according to the season, but special talks are held every Tuesday and Thursday during the summer months. The museum also often puts on exhibits of work done by local artists. Other attractions include a gift shop and a research library full of information on local history and genealogy; visitors should be aware that this material is only available for viewing if arranged in advance.
