The DeKalb County History Center, in partnership with the Joiner History Room, explores the diverse stories that are part of our county’s history; gather people together through exhibits, programs, and research; and inspire people to apply this knowledge to enlighten the decisions of tomorrow.
The History Center also is committed to building the capacity of local organizations by providing resources and opportunities for collaboration.
The DeKalb County History Center
is open by appointment.
Researchers are welcome, but tours are not available
as staff is working on the next exhibit "History of DeKalb County in 100 Objects."
