The Queen Anne's Revenge Conservation Laboratory in Greenville, NC is dedicated to uncovering and preserving the maritime history of the infamous pirate Blackbeard and his flagship, Queen Anne's Revenge. Through archaeological research and artifact preservation, their team of experts sheds light on the origins of the ship, its prior history as a transatlantic slave-trading vessel called La Concorde, and the wider political, economic, and social systems of the colonial period in North Carolina and beyond.
As part of their mission, the Queen Anne's Revenge Conservation Laboratory offers educational resources, including classroom-friendly materials, to learn about Blackbeard, the shipwreck, and underwater archaeology. Their ongoing research and preservation efforts attract over 300,000 visitors annually, shining a national spotlight on North Carolina's Crystal Coast and providing a unique opportunity to explore the rich history of colonial North Carolina.
