Welcome!

Thomas, Web Applications

The Brooklyn Historical Society began our Oral History Program in 2006 to collect important audio documents: primary sources about people, ideas, and events that make up the history of 21st century Brooklyn.

In December 2007, we opened our Oral History Gallery with the exhibit In Our Own Words: Portraits of Brooklyn's Vietnam Veterans.

Come visit!

We're located in Brooklyn Heights, an historic landmarked district, in a building designed by architect George B. Post and completed in 1881. We're down the street from Borough Hall (and the Borough Hall Farmers' Market on Tuesdays and Thursdays) and the Brooklyn Heights Promenade along the East River and not far at all from the Fulton Mall.
