Historic Huntsville Foundation

Welcome to the Historic Huntsville Foundation’s website. Founded in 1974, we are a 501(c)3 educational organization dedicated to the preservation of the architecturally and historically significant sites and structures in Huntsville and Madison County, Alabama.

The foundation seeks to achieve this purpose through the conservation and preservation of properties, innovative educational programs and publications, active advocacy, complimentary consultation and technical assistance, and participation in community planning and public policy-making.

Foundation activities are made possible by membership dues, generous contributions from individuals and organizations, special events, and grants from local, state, and Federal agencies.

The Foundation has a distinguished history of protecting buildings of significance, including the Freeman House (Lincoln Street), the Humphreys-Rogers House (Gates Avenue), the Memphis and Charleston Freight Depot (Church Street), Oak Place (Maysville Road), The Clemens House (Pratt Avenue), and the Steamboat Gothic House (Lowe Avenue).
