Hart Square Village in Vale, North Carolina, is a living history museum featuring the largest collection of historic log structures in the United States, with over 100 buildings dating back to the 1700s and 1800s. It was founded by Dr. Robert Hart III, who initially purchased the 200-acre property in 1967 as a wildlife preserve. Over time, he and his friends and volunteers rescued and relocated these structures from across North Carolina, restoring them and furnishing them with authentic period artifacts.
