History
The purpose of the Wichita County Heritage Society is to further the educational and cultural development of the community by encouraging and promoting the preservation, restoration, and display of historic landmarks, natural beauty, and other objects distinctive of Wichita County.
The Holt restoration was a 6.2 million dollar project that has been a source of community pride and economic development for our city and a shining example of the generosity of our friends.

While the Heritage Society is known locally for their unique crown jewel the Kell House, the organization has also received statewide, local, and national recognition for the recent restoration of Wichita Falls' downtown Holt Hotel. Newly completed and boasting occupancy over 100%, the impressive high-rise living facility offers a unique blend of old architecture and flooring with new kitchens and baths. A recent tour of a fifth floor apartment presented accommodations comparable to big city living, fashionable yet functional. Open windows covered by pull-down shades gave birds eye views toward a southeasterly direction. Recent additions of the building entry canopies, as well as the iron fenced covered parking area, have set a high standard for downtown living.
