The History Center is not basically a "museum" or a place where yesterday's artifacts sit mute in dusty corners. Rather, it is designed to be primarily a living archive-a treasure trove of the records, the letters, the pictures, maps and books-the thousand and one records that tell the story of our past.
Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday - 9:00am to 4:00pm
Third Saturday of each Month - 10:00am to 2:00 pm

Visit the Renovated Martinez Museum
The Martinez Historical Society was created in 1973 to save this 1890 Victorian cottage from becoming another parking lot in downtown Martinez. The building became the Martinez Museum in 1976. In addition to providing display space for interesting exhibits, it houses a local history library and an archive were historical papers, documents, photographs and irreplaceable artifacts are safely stored. The Museum was closed in 2015/2016 for renovations and has just reopened. You're invited to drop by and see the newly refurbished building and the all-new exhibits!

hundreds of hours outfitting the museum.

objects are identified and catalogued and the information stored in a computer.

John Muir National Historic Site
Fruit Rancher, Family Man, Writer... Father of the National Park Service!
John Muir played many roles in his life, all of which helped him succeed in his role as an advocate for Nature. As America's most famous naturalist and conservationist, Muir fought to protect the wild places he loved, places we can still visit today. Muir's writings convinced the U.S. government to protect Yosemite, Sequoia, Grand Canyon and Mt. Rainier as national parks.
