Enjoy history from the comfort of your car! Downtown Elberton boasts three streets full of historical homes. Whether you decide to walk the tour or drive, you’ll sure to love the eclectic mix of historic homes ranging from farmhouses to antebellum mansions. Heard Street, Church Street, and South McIntosh Street are all renowned for their historic homes- many of which have been beautifully restored and maintained. For architecture and history fiends out there, we recommend stopping by the Elbert County Public Library on Heard Street. Not only does the library feature a wealth of genealogy and ancestry information, but it also has a wonderful publication on the history of local architecture. Click here to view all the home tours.
As always, we welcome you to stop by the Elberton Welcome Center located at 148 College Avenue. We are open Monday-Friday from 8am-4pm and will be happy to help you plan your perfect Elbert trip!
