Murphy North
Carolina, the county seat of
Cherokee County, has the distinction of being known as both the first and
last town in North Carolina, depending on which way you're going, of
course. Murphy began as an Indian trading post called Huntersville, then
Huntington, and finally was named after Archibald D. Murphy, who was a
state senator and an advocate of education in Western North Carolina.
Cherokee County, is a special place in the southwestern corner of North
Carolina where the forested mountains touch the sky, the lakes sparkle,
the air is crisp and clean, and the charm of small town America still
exists. |

Attractions in or near Murphy |
 Cherokee Heritage Trail
From
the serene peaks of the Balsams to the
muddy banks of the Little Tennessee
River, Cherokee Heritage Trails
wind through the southern Appalachians,
telling the story of the Cherokee
people, Ani-Kituhwa-gi, who once
commanded all of the Southern
Appalachians. Although most of the
Cherokee were forcibly removed to
Oklahoma on the Trail of Tears in 1838,
a small group remained in their
homeland, becoming the Eastern Band of
Cherokee Indians. Today they own about
57,000 acres - the Qualla Boundary, a
remnant of their ancestral lands. |
|
Cherokee County Historical Museum
Featuring history of Cherokee County, the Museum
has more than 2000 authentic artifacts of the
Cherokee Indians on display. The museum reflects
the life of the
Cherokee Indian during
the time of the Cherokee Nation before their
removal along the "Trail of Tears" to Oklahoma.
Also featured is a collection of more than 800
dolls, the oldest doll dating back around 1865. 87 Peachtree Street, Murphy, NC
