Pirates of North Carolina come to the N.C. History Museum

The Knights of the Black Flag exhibit was moved from the Maritime Museum in Beaufort, NC to the N.C. History Museum. The exhibit showcases many artifacts related to pirates, including the largest collection of artifacts ever exhibited from the shipwreck believed to be Blackbeard’s flagship, Queen Anne’s Revenge. Legends surround another compelling artifact on loan from the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Mass.: the alleged skull of Blackbeard! The exhibit will be on view through July 6, 2009.
