Concord, North Carolina, located just northeast of Charlotte, is a city rich in history and culture. The area was first settled in the 1700s, with its origins linked to early European settlers and Native American tribes. The city’s name is derived from the Latin word "concordia," meaning harmony or peace, which reflects the town’s founding in 1806 by a group of settlers who wanted to establish a peaceful and prosperous community.

During the Civil War, Concord played a role in the conflict, with local residents having strong ties to the Confederate cause.
