Bounded by I-55 to the west and Highway 14 to the south, the Mississippi
Hills National Heritage Area, created by the United States Congress in
2009 represents a distinctive cultural landscape shaped by the dynamic
intersection of Appalachian and Delta cultures, an intersection which
has produced a powerful concentration of national cultural icons from
the King of Rock’n’Roll Elvis Presley, First Lady of Country Music Tammy
Wynette, blues legend Howlin’ Wolf, Civil Rights icons Ida B.
Wells-Barnett and James Meredith, America’s favorite playwright
Tennessee Williams, and Nobel-Laureate William Faulkner. The stories of
the Mississippi Hills are many and powerful, from music and literature,
to Native American and African American heritage, to the Civil War. The
Mississippi Hills National Heritage Area supports the local institutions
that preserve and share North Mississippi’s rich history. Begin your
discovery of the historic, cultural, natural, scenic, and recreational
treasures of the Mississippi Hills by visiting the Mississippi Hills
National Heritage Area online at mississippihills.org.
