About Us

Established in 2002, Heritage Towers Museum and Culture Center (Heritage Towers) was inaugurated and open to the public in June of 2005.  The vision for a museum and culture center emerged from “A Slave Ship” exhibition project executed in Charleston West Virginia at the turn century. The museum and the exhibits are vital components of the rich history and culture of black people from West Virginia, providing enriching educational and cultural enlightenment for all visitors to the museum.

In existence for over 10 years, Heritage Towers Museum and Culture Center continues to strive to expand its museum programs and offerings to the community at large. Our facility provides an opportunity for a trans-formative experience to the visitors. Most of all, Heritage Towers presents a unique atmosphere and is the premier Black Culture and African Heritage facility in the state of West Virginia.
