In the 1850s, under a huge hickory tree, Henry Robinson built a tavern of logs. The city of "Hickory Tavern" co-founded by "Dolph" Shuford, was established in 1863, and the name was eventually changed to the city of Hickory in 1873.
The first train operated in the city of "Hickory Tavern" in 1859. The first lot was sold to Henry Link for $45.00 in 1858. His house is now known as "The 1859 Cafe," a restaurant (closed in 2011). The community of Hickory was the first for many things in North Carolina, including the council-manager form of government it adopted in 1913. Hickory was also one of the first towns to install electric lights in 1888 and a complete sewage system in 1904.

Since the dawn of time, Grandfather Mountain has stood watch over Northwestern North Carolina.Once taller than Everest, 300 million years of wind and weather has worn these granite precipices down to a mere 5,946 feet higher than sea level. But because these peaks rise abruptly, 4,000 feet above the Catawba River Valley to the looking down toward Hickory east and 1,500 feet above the Linville River Valley to the west, many an explorer has been deceived into believing they were on the highest mountain in the East, maybe even in all of North America.
