Henley & Grange Historical Society

Who We Are

The Society was established in 1979 with the aim of recording and archiving the local history of Henley Beach, Grange and surrounding suburbs.

What We Do

The Society holds four general meetings each year, with engaging guest speakers and presentations on a range of topics. We also publish an annual journal exploring many aspects of local history and conduct many events in the annual SA History Festival. Our collection includes photographs, aural and video recordings, documents, artefacts, family histories and other display materials. We are always interested in adding to our collection and welcome donations of historical material relating to the district. If you have photographs, documents, artefacts, or family stories to share, please contact us.
