The Toowoomba Historical Society, established in 1949, is a research facility preserving and promoting the history and heritage of Toowoomba and environs through its extensive collection of local history books, articles, newspaper clipping files, maps, photographs, on-line resources, and a monthly lecture series.
We assist researchers with queries re the general history and heritage of Toowoomba and the specific history of individuals, families, businesses, houses, and events.
Everyone is welcome to use our facilities and attend our monthly lectures. We also welcome donations of historical works and resources to our library.
