FORT FISHER, N.C. (WECT) – It is the end of an era for a museum showcasing the history of our area.

Crews are working as of Tuesday, June 25, to tear down the old Fort Fisher Visitor Center.

This comes as the new visitor center is near completion and is set to open in the summer.

If you’ve been down to Fort Fisher recently, you will have seen the new building being built right next to the old one.

The demolition of the old building should take a couple of days.
