  • Mission

    To engage, educate, and challenge a diverse audience by collecting, preserving, and interpreting the buildings, objects, documents, and stories of the Huguenots’ multicultural journey in America.

    About Us

    Founded in 1894, the Huguenot Historical Society is an historic preservation, research, and educational organization. Today, Historic Huguenot Street includes 30 (museum houses, outbuildings and rental properties), nine Family Associations, and over 1500 members. From groups of local schoolchildren to travelers from around the world, we host visitors who want to experience our chapter of American History for themselves. Our hardworking staff is always seeking to improve and increase our contribution to the community: by restoring and maintaining the houses and outbuildings; by preserving our collections objects; by making our archival materials more accessible; by educating the public through outreach programs; or by making contact and maintaining relationships with the groups, individuals, and corporations who generously give to ensure that the organization's contributions will endure in the present and grow for the future.
