Welcome to the
Old Lyme Historical Society

In 2005 the Old Lyme Historical Society was little more than an idea shared by a small group of people. Our numbers have increased since then and we have produced exhibits, published books, conducted cemetery tours and held dinner lectures – all in pursuit of our mission to preserve and analyze Old Lyme’s social, civic, economic and political past. None of these accomplishments would have been possible without the financial support of the Town of Old Lyme, or the assistance of our members. With your continued help, financial and otherwise, we will continue to offer unique ways to help Old Lyme’s residents and visitors connect to our town’s rich history.
