Mebane, Administrative center in Alamance and Orange Counties, North Carolina, United States

Mebane is a city located between the Research Triangle and Piedmont Triad regions in North Carolina. The town features a mix of historic buildings and residential neighborhoods.

The town was named after Alexander Mebane, a Revolutionary War general. It underwent a name change from Mebanesville to its present form between 1881 and 1883.

The post office features a mural depicting tobacco farming, connecting visitors to the region's agricultural roots. This artwork remains a focal point of the downtown area.

The area is served by two separate school systems depending on which county residents live in. Visitors should plan their routes accordingly when navigating the town.

A former airport once served the area before being converted into residential neighborhoods. This transformation reflects how the town's land use has evolved over time.
