Where the colony actually began in 1670 - a replica trading ketch on the creek, an animal forest of species the settlers met, and eighty acres of gardens on the original site.
Charles Towne Landing
This is where the colony actually started, in 1670, a decade before anyone moved across the river to the peninsula. A replica seventeenth-century trading ketch is tied up on the creek, and the animal forest keeps the species the first settlers would have met here, bison and bears among them. The gardens sit on top of the original fortification line, which is still legible in the ground if you know to look.
