Rancho Bernardo Historical Society

The Rancho Bernardo Historical Society serves the local community of Rancho Bernardo, a community within San Diego with a population of 65,000. "We read to know that we are not alone," said C.S. Lewis. We preserve history for similar reasons: To connect with those who came before us, and those who will follow. We are part of a stream of humanity, and must preserve remnants of our past like a beautiful patchwork quilt. Since its inception in 1982, the Rancho Bernardo Historical Society has been dedicated to that end.

Mission: The Rancho Bernardo Historical Society is a non-profit organization, dedicated to preserving the local history and increasing public awareness through programs and outreach. As a non-profit we depend on the community to help us accomplish our mission: volunteers, donations and contributions, memberships, and gifts to our collections.
