The Marietta History Center is hosting its 30th-anniversary exhibition, “Marietta History Center at 30,” from January 31 through late Fall 2026. This retrospective showcases the museum’s journey since its founding in 1996, illustrating its evolution within the historic Kennesaw House.
The exhibition is organized into four chronological sections that highlight the museum’s growth over the decades. Visitors will get an inside look at museum operations, including the role of volunteers and how artifacts are integrated into the collection. A special focus will be on the Kennesaw House, which has a rich history as both a cotton warehouse and a hotel that survived the Civil War and the burning of Marietta.
This exhibition celebrates the museum’s commitment to preserving local history and igniting curiosity about Marietta’s past.
The Marietta History Center is located at 1 Depot St NE, Marietta, GA, with visiting hours from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Admission costs $10 for adults, $7 for students and seniors (60+), and is free for members, children under 5, and active military and veterans. For more information, visit mariettahistory.org.
