Honouring the college game since 1951
The National Football Foundation founded the College Football Hall of Fame in 1951 to honour the players and coaches of the college game. A site at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey, was chosen in 1949, but a building was never built there.


Ohio, Indiana and a move south
The Hall had its first building at Kings Mills, Ohio, from 1978 to 1992, then opened in South Bend, Indiana, on 25 August 1995. In 2009 the National Football Foundation chose Atlanta for a new home, and the South Bend building closed in December 2012.
Downtown Atlanta since 2014
Ground was broken in Atlanta on 28 January 2013, and the new Hall opened on 23 August 2014. Its 94,256 square feet include about 50,000 square feet of exhibit and event space and a 45-yard indoor football field, on the west side of Centennial Olympic Park.
