The Oliver Nestus Freeman Round House is a museum featuring the artifacts that depict the culture and contributions of African Americans to the history and development of Wilson.  Freeman, who was a noted local black stone mason, built the house in 1946 and other buildings in the community to help alleviate the housing shortage for GI's returning from the war.  Freeman built a round house that is said to be made of stone. The house was built from a variety of materials, including bottles, tree saplings, and string.
