'Lafayette in Fayetteville' Exhibit Now Open at the
Transportation and Local History Museum
The Fayetteville Area Transportation and Local History Museum has opened its latest exhibit, "Lafayette in
Fayetteville." The gallery is filled with an array of artifacts, images and information connecting the Marquis de
Lafayette to the City of Fayetteville. As the first city in America named for Lafayette and the only one named
for him that he visited, Lafayette holds a special place in the heart and history of the community.
Exhibits include the bed Lafayette slept in, a rosette worn at the ball held for him and other unique artifacts
associated with Lafayette and his visit to Fayetteville in 1825. The museum is very thankful to a number of
institutions and individuals for assisting in the presentation of the most comprehensive collection of Lafayette-
related artifacts and information ever displayed in Fayetteville under one roof.
The Fayetteville Area Transportation and Local History Museum is located at 325 Franklin St. in historic
downtown Fayetteville. The museum is operated by Fayetteville-Cumberland Parks & Recreation. Hours of
operation are Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free. For more information, visit
www.fcpr.us or call (910) 433-1457, 1458 or 1944.
