The area was originally settled by members of the Moravian Church in 1753, and Moravians owned the waterfall for many years (the waterfall is named after the church). Today the waterfall is a tourist attraction owned by Ken Wike who operates a history rich family campground(Moravian Falls Family Campground). People travel from all over the U.S. to enjoy the peaceful beauty of nature. Wilkes Central High School, and Central Wilkes Middle School, are located in the community.
