Historic Cabarrus, Inc. is a private nonproifit organization formed in 1973 by a group of local historians who were passionate about preservation and restoration of the Historic Cabarrus County Courthouse. The original Board of Directors were responsible for saving this wonderful historic treasure from demolition.

Our current mission is to preserve the heritage of Cabarrus County and the City of Concord through our support of the restoration and preservation of historical buildings, preserving historical artifacts, and to educate our residents and visitors to our community of our rich county history.

Historic Cabarrus has accomplished much with assistance from the generosity of the public, support from the business community and from grants over the years. Our educational projects, specifically the production of our Historical Moments, which air on Government Channel 22 is a partnership with Cabarrus County. With the continued support of our corporate sponsors and patrons, we will continue produce these segments, along with the supporting study materials which are available for our Cabarrus County School and Kannapolis City School classrooms. We have presented these materials to both schools systems and they are extremely excited about the implementation of Historical Moments into the cirriculum for the next school year. We will continue to have field trip tours and educational seminars for our school students here at the Historic Courthouse throughout the school year.

June 26, 2007 Histroic Cabarrus and the Concord Museum merged. The newly merged group will be Heritage Cabarrus, Inc. The new combined entity will begin its mission to find a permanent home to showcase historical collections and memorabilia from all of Cabarrus County.
