Since 1897, we’ve welcomed shoppers into a landmark building with real history, built in 1901. Here, you’ll still see the original counters, shelving, cabinetry, and floors. And yes, we still ring up sales on our 1907 National Cash Register.

Art & pottery
Jewelry
Gourmet foods & soaps
Books
Housewares & children’s toys

Shopping here is also part of something bigger. Harrison Brothers is owned and operated by the Historic Huntsville Foundation (HHF) as part of our preservation mission. Harrison Brothers is also home to the Historic Huntsville Museum, listed by the National Park Service to the prestigious Reconstruction Era National Historic Network.
