Event Details:

The 38th Evacuation Hospital, made up of doctors and nurses from Charlotte Memorial Hospital (Now Atrium Main, gave medical aid to the troops fighting in North Africa and Italy. Mr. Martin Cannon - the owner of Duke Mansion at the time - was a part of making this happen! Enjoy this documentary of their story.

The Rosalie Reynolds Explore History Series presented by Wells Fargo is a partnership with Duke Mansion and the North Carolina Chapter of The Institute of Classical Architecture and Art. In 2023, we lost Rosalie Wade Reynolds, the namesake of the Explore History Series. Rosalie believed in the importance of telling the Duke Mansion story and worked tirelessly to help us do that. Rosalie had deep local roots. Born in Charlotte, all four sets of Rosalie’s grandparents were also Charlotteans. We miss her energy, her kindness, and her joy.
