Eastern Lincoln County features North Carolina's largest lake, Lake Norman. It has 520 miles of shoreline and 32,000 acres of surface area.
Western Lincoln County features rural farm lands near South Mountain State Park offering horseback riding, hiking, hunting and much more.
Lincolnton was established in 1785 as the seat of Lincoln County. Thanks to the steady flow of pioneers relocating to North Carolina's backcountry, by 1840 Lincoln County had become one of the most populous counties in North Carolina.

It led the state in the value of wheat,
orchard products and dairy products and was among the top producers of cotton and livestock in North Carolina as well. By 1849, it was also the top producer of iron in the state due to the county's many forges and furnaces. However, the creation of 3 new counties out of Lincoln County lands during the 1840s managed to slow the county's development. It wasn't until the start of the 20th century that growth in and around Lincolnton once again took off with the arrival of numerous textile mills.
