Museum: Old Salem
Location: Winston-Salem, North Carolina

This was one of the first four historic districts in the U.S., is home to the oldest college building in the nation, the first college for women in the nation is in this district, the first recorded July 4th celebration was in this district, and this district is very large. President Washington visited in 1791 to see the city's rare water system, installed in the 1770s (very rare back then!) and stayed two or three days for the food, beer, music, and to meet the Governor. Winston-Salem has two or three of these Colonial "living history museum" National Landmark Districts, for those who love to visit them.
