The Angaston & Penrice Historical Society (APHS) was established in 1997 with the vision to preserve, share and pass on knowledge of the captivating local history of Angaston & Penrice.
Our activities include staging exhibitions and events, maintaining our archives and collections and answering family and local history queries.
Our organisation oversees the operation of the heritage listed Angaston Blacksmith Shop & Museum located at 19 Murray Street, with a passionate group of blacksmith volunteers demonstrating their skills on the forge. Next door, the Angaston History Centre invites you to explore history through the lens of every day life by sharing stories of the Doddridge family who lived in the 1870s home for three generations.
