WELCOME TO THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY
OF CHARLES COUNTY
CELEBRATING 50 YEARS!

The Historical Society of Charles County, Inc. was established in 1961 to preserve, research, and promote the heritage of Charles County, Maryland.  It is administered through its Officers and Board of Directors.

The Society holds regular membership meetings in the Winter and Fall.  The Winter meeting is a dessert meeting and the Fall meeting is a dinner.  Officers and Board members are elected at the Fall meeting.  A Spring field trip with a luncheon is held sometime in May. 

The official newsletter of the Historical Society is The Record which is published three times a year.

Through a partnership with the College of Southern Maryland, the Society maintains and provides tours of Historic Friendship House, an 18th century Maryland Tidewater dwelling located on its campus. The historic interpretation and authentic furnishings exhibit the way of life of early Southern Maryland.

Please join us in continuing to preserve the unique heritage of Charles County.
