Athens-Clarke Heritage Foundation

The Mission

The mission of the Athens-Clarke Heritage Foundation is to be a proactive force in developing community-wide understanding of the value of historic buildings, neighborhoods, and heritage.

The Community

Athens, Georgia is an unmistakably southern city steeped in vibrant college culture. While the spirited city is perhaps most known for the University of Georgia, it’s also home to a thriving music scene, award-winning restaurants and a host of other attractions that make the Classic City a great place to live, work, and play. Athens has a rich and fascinating history, and ACHF has been actively preserving the history and its tangible resources for over 50 years. ACHF’s is headquartered in Historic Fire Hall #2 (c. 1901) on Prince Ave in the heart of Athens.
