The Healdsburg Museum was founded in 1976 by a group of local citizens to house the historical collections donated to the City of Healdsburg. The museum houses an impressive range of artifacts and documents related to northern Sonoma County history, such as Pomo Indian basketry, nineteeth century weapons, tools, textiles, crafts, and an extensive archival library that includes some 8,000 original photographs. Free guided tours are available for groups by appointment.
