==History==
===Pre-establishment and colonial era===
The [[Occaneechi]] Indians lived in the area of what is now [[Hillsborough, North Carolina|Hillsborough]], north of Chapel Hill, prior to European settlement.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Occaneechi Indians |url=https://www.ncpedia.org/occaneechi-indians |access-date=February 4, 2023 |website=NCpedia}}</ref>

The area was the home place of early settler William Barbee of [[Middlesex County, Virginia]], whose 1753 grant of 585 acres on the north and south side of "Lick Branch"<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal |last=Daniel |first=Randolph |date=May 1996 |title=A PRELIMINARY ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY AND ASSESSMENT OF THE MEADOWMONT PROPERTY, THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL |url=https://www.rla.unc.edu/Publications/pdf/TechRep/TechRep23.pdf |journal=Research Laboratories of Anthropology University of North Carolina Chapel Hill |volume=23}}</ref> from [[John Carteret, 2nd Earl Granville]] was the first of two land grants in what is now the Chapel Hill-Durham area. Though William Barbee died shortly after settling there in 1758,<ref>{{Cite web |title=Barbee Cemetery Historical Marker |url=https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=171942 |access-date=2023-02-04 |website=Hmdb.org |language=en}}</ref> one of his eight children, Christopher Barbee, became an important contributor to his father's adopted community and to the fledgling [[University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill|University of North Carolina]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.unc.edu/about/history-and-traditions/|title=History of the University|website=UNC.edu|publisher=[[University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill]]|access-date=November 9, 2018}}</ref> In 1792, he offered the trustees of UNC 221 acres on which the university is now built, making him the university's largest donor.<ref name=":0" />

Chapel Hill has developed along a hill; the crest was the original site of a small Anglican "chapel of ease", built in 1752, known as [[Chapel of the Cross (Chapel Hill, North Carolina)|New Hope Chapel]]. [[The Carolina Inn]] now occupies this site. In 1819, the town was founded by the [[North Carolina General Assembly|NC General Assembly]]<ref>{{Cite web |title=History Timeline {{!}} Town of Chapel Hill, NC |url=https://www.townofchapelhill.org/government/newsroom/about-chapel-hill/history/history-timeline |access-date=2023-02-04 |website=Townofchapelhill.org |language=en}}</ref> to serve the University of North Carolina and developed around it. The town was chartered in 1851,<ref>{{cite EB1911|wstitle=Chapel Hill|volume=5|page=851}}</ref> and its main street, Franklin Street, was named in memory of [[Benjamin Franklin]].<ref name="facts" /><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://townhall.townofchapelhill.org/agendas/ca050411/4e-Resolution%20to%20Update%20Town%20Seal.htm|title=AGENDA #4c|website=Townhall.townofchapelhill.org|access-date=September 15, 2019}}</ref>

===Civil War===
Four in ten Chapel Hillians were enslaved at the start of the [[American Civil War|Civil War]], and about half of the town was Black.<ref>{{Cite web |author=Andrea Wuerth |title=WHEN THE CONFEDERACY LOST CHAPEL HILL – The Marian Cheek Jackson Center |url=https://jacksoncenter.info/2018/09/05/when-the-confederacy-lost-chapel-hill/ |access-date=2023-02-04 |language=en}}</ref> In April 1865, as the war ended, the [[9th Michigan Cavalry Regiment|9th Michigan Cavalry]] rode into Chapel Hill and occupied the university and the town for more than two weeks.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civil War · A Nursery of Patriotism: the University at War, 1861-1945 · UNC Libraries |url=https://exhibits.lib.unc.edu/exhibits/show/patriotism/civil-war |access-date=2023-02-04 |website=Exhibits.lib.unc.edu}}</ref>

===Civil rights era===
In 1969, a year after the town fully integrated its schools, Chapel Hill elected [[Howard Nathaniel Lee|Howard Lee]] as mayor. It was the first majority-white municipality in the South to elect an African-American mayor.<ref name="Lee">{{cite web| author=Nicholas Graham| year=2004| title=This Month in North Carolina History| publisher=UNC University Libraries| url=http://www.lib.unc.edu/ncc/ref/nchistory/may2004/| access-date=August 16, 2011| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111104171529/http://www.lib.unc.edu/ncc/ref/nchistory/may2004/| archive-date=November 4, 2011| url-status=dead}}</ref> Serving from 1969 to 1975, Lee helped establish [[Chapel Hill Transit]], the town's bus system, and the [[Mountains-to-Sea Trail|Mountains-to-Sea trail]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Kramer |first=Melody |date=2023-02-16 |title=When Howard Lee moved to Colony Woods |url=https://triangleblogblog.com/2023/02/16/when-howard-lee-moved-to-colony-woods/ |access-date=2023-02-17 |website=Triangle Blog Blog |language=en-US}}</ref>

Some 30 years later, in 2002, the state passed legislation to provide free service to all riders on local buses. The bus operations are funded through Chapel Hill and Carrboro town taxes, federal grants, and UNC student tuition. The change has resulted in a large increase in ridership, taking many cars off the roads. Several hybrid and articulated buses have been added recently. All buses carry GPS transmitters to report their location in real-time to a tracking web site. Buses can transport bicycles and have wheelchair lifts.

In 1993, the town celebrated its bicentennial and founded the [[Chapel Hill Museum]]. This cultural community resource "exhibiting the character and characters of Chapel Hill, North Carolina" includes among its permanent exhibits ''Alexander Julian'', ''History of the Chapel Hill Fire Department'', ''Chapel Hill's 1914 Fire Truck'', ''The [[James Taylor]] Story'', ''Farmer/James Pottery'', and ''The [[Paul Green (playwright)|Paul Green]] Legacy''.<ref>{{cite web | year=2011 | title=Ongoing Exhibits | publisher=The Chapel Hill Museum | url=http://chapelhillmuseum.org/Exhibits/Ongoing/ | access-date=August 3, 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110813112326/http://chapelhillmuseum.org/Exhibits/Ongoing/ | archive-date=August 13, 2011 | url-status=dead }}</ref>

In addition to the Carolina Inn, the [[Beta Theta Pi Fraternity House (Chapel Hill, North Carolina)|Beta Theta Pi Fraternity House]], [[Chapel Hill Historic District (Chapel Hill, North Carolina)|Chapel Hill Historic District]], [[Chapel Hill Town Hall]], [[Chapel of the Cross (Chapel Hill, North Carolina)|Chapel of the Cross]], [[Gimghoul Neighborhood Historic District]], [[Alexander Hogan Plantation]], [[Old Chapel Hill Cemetery]], [[Old East|Old East, University of North Carolina]], [[Playmakers Theatre]], [[Rocky Ridge Farm Historic District]], and [[West Chapel Hill Historic District]] are listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]].<ref name="nris">{{NRISref|version=2010a}}</ref>
