Our office seeks to provide the excellent customer service that all citizens deserve.

This will include the main office located at 3425 Hwy. 126, Blountville, and the Sullivan County Heritage Tourism Information Center located at 1575 Hwy. 394 in Blountville. Staff members will continue to work onsite at the main office and will respond to all general information inquiries, records inquiries and tourism questions; you may reach a staff member by calling (423) 323-4660 or by emailing to info@sullivancountytn.gov.

Responsibilities of Archives and Tourism
At the Sullivan County Department of Archives and Tourism, our primary focus is on preservation of Sullivan County’s historic governmental records while showcasing the history and attractions, both old and new, in our area.
Responsibilities of Archives and Tourism
Patrick Henry once said, “I know of no way of judging the future but by the past.” Preserving our historic documents and buildings is closest to the very heart of the Sullivan County Department of Archives and Tourism, as it brings us a better understanding of who we are today. Without our historic documents and the beautiful historic sites in Sullivan County, we would often be reminded of ancestors whose names were long since forgotten and of homeplaces lost in time. Please visit beautiful Northeast Tennessee and enjoy our Sunnyside Trail! We invite you to join us in our quest as we preserve the past, share our heritage, and showcase the beautiful attractions in Sullivan County, Tennessee, truly “a Museum of Masterpieces, both old and new”.
