History Conversations REWIND | Historic Preservation: Why Does It Matter?
September 30 - October 6
with Eileen McGuckian |
If we can read history in books, do we need to see historic buildings in person? Many people think so, and this session will feature how local preservation has been accomplished over the past century. The significance of places like cemeteries, the Silver Theatre, the Red Brick Courthouse, the Dickerson Railroad Station, and the Bethesda Meeting House along with towns and communities such as Brookeville and Sugarland will be explored. This session will delve into places worth preserving, local experiences, and current practices in Montgomery County.
Originally aired at the January 2023 Montgomery County History Conference.
