We preserve history through outreach, restoration, and research.
Our Mission:
To advance the study of history by providing a forum for public knowledge through the operation of its museum, library, archives, and outdoor facilities; and to collect, preserve, study, interpret and exhibit significant historic materials relating to Macon County.
-Adopted in August of 1990
