The Tippecanoe County Historical Association is the county's history keepers. TCHA works to preserve and interpret the past, create a sense of place in the present and propel us toward the future with hope. TCHA works to fulfill its purpose in many ways-by collecting, preserving and interpreting objects through exhibits and programs. By maintaining four sites-the Fowler House, the Genealogy
and Research Center, the Tippecanoe Battlefield Museum, and Historic Fort Ouiatenon- TCHA tells the story of the county from early European contact through the battle that changed the course of the Old Northwest Territory. The Association also hosts the annual Feast of the Hunters' Moon festival that brings to life the earliest of recorded history in our region. This event is recognized as a unique and of the highest quality historical festival.
