The Bankhead House and Heritage Center is a museum of Walker County history and cultural venue operated by the Walker Area Community Foundation in the 1924 William Bankhead residence at 800 7th Street in the North Highlands section of Jasper.

The house was conveyed to the Foundation by Gerald Ivey and restored inside and out. The center opened in June 2010.
