Mission Statement

The Lower Merion Historical Society is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to Our Past For The Future. For more than 60 years we have accomplished this by stewardship of local history, education of the community, preservation of historic resources and outreach to promote awareness of the cultural heritage of the Township of Lower Merion and the Borough of Narberth

Description

The Historical Society is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization serving the community since 1949. For more than 60 years, our volunteers have provided educational programs to the public. Thousands of students, residents and scholars have worked with the Society's extensive resources. The Historical Society is a vital force in preserving the rich history of the Lower Merion community.

Among our many accomplishments, we have preserved the mile markers that map our region’s relationship with Philadelphia, and we have restored the 1812 Lower Merion Academy building, which is now in active use as the Society’s headquarters. We also published The First 300: The Amazing and Rich History of Lower Merion , a publication that isthe reference book of choice for local history.
