The Sense of Place explores Talladega’s rich history, offering insight into the events, people, and places that have shaped the community. Through photographs, artifacts, and archival materials, the exhibit captures Talladega’s spirit from its earliest days through periods of change and growth.
Now, the Heritage Hall Museum is expanding the story with a new series of oral history interviews featuring local residents, educators, artists, and community leaders. These personal stories preserve Talladega’s cultural heritage and bring its history to life.
By collecting these voices, the museum helps ensure future generations connect with the experiences and values that define this unique sense of place.
