- The DeKalb History Center (DHC) was initially established as the "DeKalb Historical Society" in 1947. We are the only organization dedicated to collecting, preserving and sharing the rich history of DeKalb County. DHC is a membership based non-profit; we rely on contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations who support our mission. After a Resolution in 1968 by the DeKalb County Board of Commissioners, we moved our offices into the historic DeKalb County Courthouse and have been located here ever since. We have museum galleries on the main floor. Our archives have great resources for researchers - please make an appointment with our archivist to find out more. The Old Superior Courtroom is a popular spot for weddings and can be rented through DHC. Check our website for more information.
