High Point was incorporated in 1859 and named after the "highest point" along the North Carolina Railroad between Charlotte and Goldsboro. The city's central location allowed for the easy transportation of materials like cotton and lumber to come into the city, and this contributed to High Point's early growth. Today, there are many other sites in High Point that attract visitors. Mendenhall Plantation is a nearby early 19th century Quaker plantation which was active with dissenters during the Civil War who helped transport slaves to freedom. The Doll and Miniature Museum of High Point is one of the south's largest such museums, and features more than 2,700 dolls, miniature displays, and dollhouses from around the world. For nature enthusiasts, the Piedmont Environmental Center offers 376 acres of hiking trails along High Point Lake, a nature preserve, small animal exhibits, and greenway trail access. However, the most famous landmark in High Point stays true to the city's reputation - built in 1926, the World's Largest Chest of Drawers draws many visitors and wide-eyed passerbys.
