About Sebastopol Historical Society

  

ABOUT US

The Sebastopol Historical Society inc. is a not-for-profit community group. It was formed in 1973 to collect, record, preserve, share, and promote research into Sebastopol’s rich and fascinating history from pre-gold rush days, through to the present day. A small team of dedicated members volunteer their time and talents to support the society in this work. New members interested in learning more about Sebastopol’s history or wishing to use our archives and resources to undertake research, are most welcome. Sebastopol Historical Society is affiliated with the Royal Historical Society of Victoria.
