Bartow History Center

The museum documents the history of northwest Georgia's Bartow County, spanning more than 200 years since the Cherokee were the area's primary residents. Artifacts, photographs, documents, and a variety of interactive permanent exhibits tell the story of settlement, Cherokee removal, Civil War strife, and lifestyles of years past. Regional experiences and events are explored and re-discovered. Even a national or global event, such as the World War II, had an impact in Bartow County, and the exhibits bring that to light.
