What We Do
The Macon County History Preservation Project is a dedicated organization committed to safeguarding the rich history of our community. Our mission is to discover, preserve, protect, renovate, and showcase the historical landmarks, stories, and artifacts that define Macon County’s heritage. We believe that history is not only found in textbooks but lives in the stories of the people, places, and events that shaped our past. With the support of our local community, we aim to create an accessible space where history is celebrated, cherished, and passed down to future generations. Through educational programs, preservation efforts, and community engagement, we are working to ensure that Macon County’s legacy remains alive and vibrant. By connecting people with their roots, we help foster a deeper sense of pride and understanding of the unique culture that makes Macon County truly special. Join us in our mission to preserve the past, enrich the present, and inspire the future. Together, we can make history last.
