History You Can Touch
In 1974 the wrecking
ball was scheduled to take a swing at the historic Bijou Theatre.
Fortunately several concerned citizens stepped in to save the day
- and the building. These citizens also focused their efforts on the
preservation of other historic structures in downtown Knoxville, and
eventually became Knox Heritage, Inc.
The Mission Statement of Knox Heritage
Knox Heritage advocates for the preservation of places and structures with historic or cultural significance.
Established in 1974 as a non-profit educational
corporation, Knox Heritage is chartered by the state of Tennessee
and governed by a board of directors representing all areas of our
community. Membership in the organization is by annual dues which
