About Us

Owen County Preservations is dedicated to protecting, celebrating, and sharing the rich history and heritage of our community. Our mission is simple yet vital: to promote and encourage interest in the history and heritage of the Owen County area, and in particular in the built environment left by individuals and families of the county.

Through preservation, education, and community engagement, we strive to ensure that the landmarks, stories, and traditions that shaped Owen County are not lost to time, but rather continue to inspire future generations. We believe that by honoring the work of those who came before us, we strengthen our community’s identity, pride, and resilience.

With the support of donors, volunteers, and partners, Owen County Preservations can safeguard historic places, foster appreciation for our shared past, and create opportunities for learning and connection. Together, we can preserve the legacy of Owen County and pass it forward as a gift to tomorrow.
