The Braidwood and District Historical Society was founded in 1970.

We promote and publish historical works and studies related to the area and foster the sharing of information through lectures, readings, discussions, excursions and exhibitions. We celebrate, protect and share the heritage of the region.
We own and run the Braidwood Museum which holds a rich collection of objects and archives. Our researchers assist with family history enquiries and we sell a large selection of books relevant to the area.

We pay respect to them as First Nations people with continuing connection to land, place, waters and community.
