About

The Historical Society of the Municipality of Sorell is a not-for-profit incorporated association with an active volunteer committee. Since 1993 we have been collecting and recording stories, photographs and artefacts that tell the story of the Sorell district of south east Tasmania – from Orielton to Marion Bay, from Nugent to Primrose Sands and of course the townships of Sorell, Dodges Ferry and Dunalley. We publish the Pitt Water Chronicles local history journal, we host events from time to time, run a Facebook page and the very popular Sorell History Society Facebook group. New members are very welcome (just $25 annual family subscription). Come along to a monthly meeting, phone Peta Kelly on 0437 588 848 or email us if you have a question or would like to take a look through the many photos, records and artefacts at our History Room at Sorell Memorial Hall.
