Planned House of Flags building

Our purpose

Flags tell us the story of a group's struggle for identity and freedom.

In the House of Flags, if we listen closely enough, we can hear the stories of these flags ringing loud and clear.

Welcome to the House of Flags

This unique museum was opened on September 8, 2001 in response to local citizens' desire to instill respect and etiquette for the flag of the United States of America.

Operating in a temporary facility 12 miles from Columbus, North Carolina, the 300-plus flag collection, guided tours, educational video programs were made possible by financial contributions from local veterans, citizens, visitors and the sale of flag merchandise
