    KILL DEVIL HILLS HISTORY

    The oldest township in the Outer Banks, Kill Devil Hills is the center of the Outer Banks.  The unique name comes from the band of rum found during the colonial period, from shipwrecks, said to be strong enough to “kill the devil”. Kill Devil Hill is the site of the Memorial Pylon, commemorating the flights of 1903, when Orville and Wilbur Wright flew the first plane.  The Wright Brothers National Memorial is located in this popular vacation spot, along with a wide variety of restaurants, shopping, ample public beach accesses, and night life.
