Historic Saluda

Built in 1936 in the Art Deco style, the Saluda Theater was once the central attraction for local moviegoers before closing in 1982. Since restoration began in 1988, it has become the county's civic center for activities, with excellent acoustics and a small size that enhance theatrical experiences. Across the street, the Saluda County Courthouse has served as the seat of county government since it was built in 1918. Inside, Saluda County's Centennial Quilt tells the story of the county, and monuments on the courthouse square mark important local history. Next to the theater, the county museum houses artifacts and information related to Saluda County history, with temporary and permanent exhibits including a diorama of the Alamo and a painting of Saluda County's Alamo heroes James Butler Bonham and William Barrett Travis.
