Goulbourn
Historical Society and Museum
The Goulbourn Historical Society and Museum is a registered charitable
organization committed to preserving and promoting the history of the
Goulbourn community. The Museum, located at the intersection of Flewellyn and Huntley Roads (Stanley Corners), Stittsville is housed in
two co-located, but separate, former municipal buildings: the 1872
Township Hall where artefacts are displayed for viewing, meetings are
held, and presentations are given, and the 1961 Clerk's Building which houses the History Centre. Documents, photographs, and other material
is available at the History Centre for researchers interested in genealogy
or local history.
Museum exhibits chronicle 19th and 20th century community life with an
emphasis on the military, rural schools and rural living. The Historical Society holds monthly meetings at the Museum which
are advertised in the local media. Most meetings feature a guest speaker,
and the public is most welcome to attend.
