Historical Commission SealThe Prince William County Historical Commission is composed of 16 citizens, representing the seven magisterial districts along with two at-large members, appointed by the Board of County Supervisors. The Historical Commission advises the Board in its efforts to identify, preserve, protect and promote Prince William County's historical sites, artifacts, buildings and events.

Members review land development applications and make recommendations regarding their impact on cultural resources; produce publications related to local history; provide input on the installation of historical highway markers; propose properties to be included on the County Registered Historic Site list; conduct tours; and award community service certificates.
