The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville is a leading institution devoted to American country music, combining the Hall of Fame’s public role with extensive archival, educational, and exhibition work. Created through efforts by the Country Music Association and Country Music Foundation, it opened its first building in 1967 and expanded repeatedly before moving downtown in 2001 and enlarging again in 2014. Its collections include hundreds of thousands of recordings, images, films, instruments, and manuscripts, while its galleries, Rotunda, theater, education center, and historic sites such as Hatch Show Print and RCA Studio B make it a central place for honoring, studying, and presenting country music history.
