Butner was originally part of Camp Butner, an Army training camp. After World War II, the state of North Carolina took over the developed part of the camp, building mental hospitals and prisons in the town. In 2007, Camp Butner was incorporated as the town of Butner. The largely undeveloped area north of the town is the Camp Butner National Guard Training Center.
