The Alabama Historical Commission is the state agency charged with safeguarding Alabama’s historic buildings and sites. Created by an act of the state legislature in 1966, it consists of 20 members appointed by the Governor, or serving ex officio, who represent a broad cross section of Alabamians.
Architects, historians, archaeologists, and representatives of Alabama’s universities are members of the AHC. Efforts are underway to increase the commission’s membership to include a more geographic and culturally diverse board.
