The Northeast Georgia History Center, located in Gainesville, Georgia, is a museum and tourist attraction that offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore the rich history of the region.

Reviews
"Nice staff and well run museum. My 6 yo would have loved more interactive history object lessons. The toy train was it. There were a few participatory history lessons, like taking a turn churning butter and making corn dolls (which he couldn't do by himself and therefore wouldn't), but I'd love to see bigger hands on cotton lesson, foods to touch or count like peanuts, etc. Would recommend for older kids and adults."
"Simple, but interesting learning some of the history in the area. Always love learning about history around the country."
"We love the History Center at Brenau! We have attended 2 homeschool days so far, each have been unique and well planned! Our teens loved it and learned info about Rome and The Great Depression…..would highly recommend becoming a member of you plan to participate in several of their events …. Check out the family days, as well! Highly recommend!"
"It was a great afternoon. We had a lovely time. Would have loved if there had been a gathering of the Clans. Maybe next time."
