Sudbury Historical Society

The Society's mission is to collect, study, preserve, and maintain historical records, artifacts, and objects relating to the history and archaeology of the community of Sudbury, Massachusetts; to promote interest in, and the study of, its history; and to connect the people of Sudbury with its traditions and history through educational programming and community engagement.

The Society was founded in 1956 by history-minded citizens of Sudbury. In 1970, it absorbed the Goodman Society (founded in 1890) its predecessor Historical and Improvement Society. Since 1998 the Society has been headquartered in the Upper Floor of the Sudbury Town Hall, but plans are underway to build a new headquarters in the re-purposed c. 1730 Loring Parsonage next door, which will become the future Sudbury History Center.
