Specialties

The Hillsborough Visitors Center operates from the historic Alexander Dickson House, a late-​18th century Quaker-​plan farmhouse. Conveniently located downtown, it serves as the information hub for Hillsborough’s historic sites, local shops and restaurants, parks and recreational areas, and events. The site also includes a detached farm office used by Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston in April 1865 as he negotiated with Union General William T. Sherman, as well as an 18th and 19th century medicinal and herbal garden.
