    Bermuda Historical Society


    The Bermuda Historical Society is a not-for-profit organisation founded in 1895. The Society
    promotes a wide interest in all aspects of
    Bermuda history
    through its
    exhibits,
    publications and
    scholarship fund.

    The organization
    shows the future

    generations the varied artefacts from bygone. It


    also gives them deeper appreciation of life in
    early Bermuda. The collection of the Bermuda
    cedar furniture dates almost exclusively from the
    eighteenth century while the numerous pieces of
    silver
    flatware
    were
    nearly all
    fashioned
    by local
    smiths.
    There are
    also
    significant
    Bermuda
    portraits, as well as ceramics and crystal imported long ago by
    the Island's
    sea captains. While the museum is open Monday-Friday and
    selected
    Saturdays for the public to enjoy at their leisure, the Bermuda
    Historical Society is always delighted to arrange for guided tours of the museum with one of our
    excellent volunteers!
