The Natchez Historical Society is a historical preservation organization, founded in 1954, and open to the public.
The Natchez Historical Society mission is to serve as a resource for the research, development, presentation, remembrance, and understanding of the formative history of the Natchez area. The Natchez Historical Society mission to facilitate the memory and knowledge of the Natchez area’s history covers all the eras of its past, from pre-Colonial times to the modern. We are vitally interested in all the peoples who have made this place their home or sojourned here and made it what it has been and has become today. These include, among many others: native-Americans; European explorers; frontier settlers; planters; African-Americans, including the enslaved; merchants; soldiers; educators; artists and writers; as well as English, French, German, Irish, Italian, and Jewish immigrants.
