Established to preserve the remains of the former home and plantation of politician Charles Pinckney, the Charles Pinckney National Historic Site is a 28-acre property that introduces visitors to an important part of South Carolina's history. The most notable part of the site is a cottage built in 1828 that has been converted into a Visitor's Center and museum filled with exhibits about Charles Pinckney's life and what it was like to live on a plantation in the 18th century. There is no admission fee to visit the park.
