Oregon Historical Society

The Oregon Historical Society is dedicated to putting the power of Oregon’s rich, surprising history into everyone’s hands. For more than a century, we have served as the state’s collective memory, gathering and preserving historical pieces, including over 85,000 artifacts and millions of photographs, films, and manuscripts, and sharing them through our museum, research library, academic journal, educational programs, and ever-growing digital content.
