 Paris-Henry
County Heritage Center The Paris-Henry County Heritage
Center, which has been called "the crown jewel of Paris",
was built in 1916 by philanthropist Col. O. C. Barton. The beautiful
mansion retains its original stained-glass windows, marble staircase and floors, ceiling and wall paintings, and mahogany woodwork.
The Paris-Henry County Heritage Center serves as a museum, an archive,
and a research and educational center. You can also partake
in the Historical Walking Tour. This tour is a historical audio-taped walking tour of
west Tennessee's oldest incorporated city, Paris. Entitled "Paris Revisited," this lively recorded tour will take you through downtown Paris,
the North Poplar Street Historic District and the Old City Cemetery all of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
