History Cambridge, formerly the Cambridge Historical Society, operates in the Museums, Historical Sites, and Zoos sector. Based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the organization blends history with humanities to explore how the past informs the present and shapes future developments. Founded in 1905, it rebranded in 2021 to emphasize engagement with the city through conversations that address contemporary issues rather than presenting events in isolation.

In 2023, History Cambridge partnered with Cambridge Foundry to provide historical context on the experiences of Polish immigrant women workers in Cambridge’s industrial past. As part of its public-program work, it has also undertaken efforts to develop programming with Indigenous communities in Cambridge, including the Massachusett Tribe, to illuminate their history up to the present day.
