WELCOME to the McDowell County Historical Society, we are a long standing and deep rooted historical society in McDowell County, North Carolina, composed of people with an interest in preserving the area’s history – history of its people, its places, and its unique culture. 

We welcome you to enjoy our Society through our website, but encourage you to come out and participate at our monthly 4th Thursday Programs and our special events.
​
We invite all who are interested in learning, sharing, and preserving the history of McDowell County to become a part of our Historical Society Family and we look forward to hearing from you.

Patti Holda,
President
McDowell County Historical Society
