Formed in 195, the Camden Historical Society is instrumental in keeping history alive in the Camden area through the museum and is responsible for the preservation and display of this heritage.
The history of the Camden district is as old as Australia itself, and this unique heritage unfolds in the exhibited stories and displays as you wander through the large collection of Aboriginal and 20th-century material, which has been donated by the people of the town and district.
These things reflect the everyday and familiar experiences that most people share – joy and grief, recreation and work, caring and learning, past and present.
A visit is essential for anyone interested in researching Camden’s local history.
