Our History

Originally built in 1904 as a church, The Historic Venue has been a part of downtown Chattanooga’s footprint for over 100 years. After renovations in 2012, the church entered a new era as a premier event venue, continuing its legacy as a timeless space for gathering and celebrating. Today, The Historic hosts weddings, dances, soirees, galas, and other celebrations, with each event adding to its vibrant history.

Capacity

The Historic offers approximately 4,800 square feet of original hardwood floors, exposed brick, and wood beams eventuating beautiful vaulted ceilings. This space can make for a modern industrial backdrop or vintage feel and won’t fail to create a warm, unique, and gorgeous event.

The venue can host 200 for both a wedding and reception in the same location. A cocktail-style reception can accommodate up to 250 guests.
