Preserve, Restore, and Remember
Welcome to the Pickens County Historical Society's website. The Ancient & Learned is proud to present to you all that's old and news from the historical heart of the Upcountry. Visit us here often for events and updates, and feel free to contact us at pickenscohistory@gmail.com. Together, we can make history.
We are chartered for the purpose of perpetuating and disseminating the historical knowledge, artifacts, and heritage from pre-historic times to the present and protecting historically significant artifacts, structures, places, and elements of Pickens County and South Carolina.
Founded in 1958, the Pickens County Historical Society is an active, community-engaged organization of over five hundred members.
Partnering with numerous other organizations and government agencies, we are involved in many projects that benefit the people of our area. We encourage your interest, support, and membership.
