This page is for the historic community of Martin, TN. Enjoy the page as a resource for all of the happenings in our great community. "Every community has a heart. Keeping that heart beating is what we do." - Dwight Young, National Trust for Historic Preservation
Historic Martin is A Group of Businesses and Citizens Working Together with Small, Steady Steps for Positive Changes in our Community.
"It wasn't about being important, or being the boss or being in charge. It was about belonging to a group that was helping others. It was around the energy. People were able to give up their self-interest and do whatever it took to get the job done." (Martin Cowart).

Today, we have the challenge of restoring a foundation of our Downtown’s history. We have the unique opportunity of developing an area that our entire area, not just Martin, can come together for a unique shopping and entertaining experience. This will take focus, planning, flexibility and resilience.
