The Joel Lane House was built in the early 1770’s for “The Father of Raleigh” who facilitated the location and creation of the permanent North Carolina capital city. His faithfully-restored plantation manor was once deemed “ The Best House for 100 Miles.
We invite you to browse through the Joel Lane Museum House website and learn about the fascinating Colonel Lane and the house where North Carolina history was made.
However, please have patience; the Joel Lane website is a work in progress. We hope that our visitors will continue to visit as we post more and more information that will make their visit to the Joel Lane Museum House meaningful and exciting.
