Preserving & Educating

The Tabor House Museum honors the history and heritage of our county and region.
Gilmer County was the location of the historic Lower Towns of the Cherokee Nation of Georgia up until the Indian removal in 1838. The museum contains artifacts and donated items related to Cherokee history, military history, and much more.

About Us

The Gilmer County Historical Society, Inc. (formerly Historic Preservation Society) was formed in 2004. In 2007 the organization’s name was changed and a 501c3 non-profit was formed. 

We believe that every town has a history, and that history involves persons, localities, and incidents which may be highly important to know for years to come.

About the Tabor House Museum

Donated to the Gilmer County Historical Society in 2008, the Tabor House is the oldest family home in the city of Ellijay. Step back in time at this 1870's Victorian-era reconstruction period home filled with artifacts of North Georgia's history from the Cherokee Indians to early pioneers, from the Civil War to WWII, and more.

We welcome visitors to tour the Tabor House Museum either self-guided or with a volunteer who can share interesting details about the Tabor House and the displays. 


The Tabor House Museum is open Thursdays and Fridays 11am-3pm and the first three Saturdays of each month 11am-3pm.

The museum is open mid-March to mid-December.


Located in Downtown Ellijay, behind the Gilmer County Court House at 138 Spring Street
