Welcome to the Village!
Driven by a deep commitment to preserve community history, the Friends of Historic Meridian (FHM) was established as a private non-profit organization in 1974. Our mission is “to create and sustain an active appreciation of local history.”
Hear Executive Director Holly Cordill discuss the village on the Preservation Oaks podcast!
In addition to preserving and maintaining the historic structures in the Meridian Historical Village, FHM offers a variety of community outreach and educational programs. We offer on-site field trips that are designed to make history come alive. Annual events include a day camp for children the 1st full week in August, the Heritage Festival the 1st Saturday in October, and Christmas in the Village on the 2nd Sunday in December. FHM also publishes a newsletter, The Gatekeeper, and periodically offers free programs of local or historical interest.
While we're delighted that you're visiting our website, behind everything you see here are real live people. Our hope is that you'll move from cyberspace to real space and be our guest sometime at any of the activities that may have caught your interest. The real heart and soul of the Meridian Historical Village awaits your personal on-site visit. We believe you'll enjoy what you find here.
Please join us as our guests at the Meridian Historical Village!
