A double-bowed Windsor chair, circa 1770. The Jonesborough/Washington County History Museum and Archives was founded in 1982. With the formation of the Heritage Alliance in 2001, the museum acquired the Archival collection of the former Historic Jonesborough Foundation, creating a fascinating historical record of our region. In keeping with our mission to preserve and protect the cultural, historical and structural heritage and arts of our region, the Museum and Archives collects material culture for the purpose of enhancing the public’s understanding of the social, political, cultural, and economic history of Jonesborough and Washington County. Our exhibits provide out of town guests with an excellent orientation to the history of Jonesborough and Washington County from its founding through the early twentieth century. Residents of our region enjoy the opportunity to relive the heady days of Tennessee’s oldest town, regaining a sense of place and civic pride. Our Archives feature a large collection of historic photographs from throughout the region, as well as a collection of books and correspondence covering a range of topics.
