The
Carmel Heritage Society is a non-profit organization serving
the community of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Our mission is to protect,
preserve and promote the cultural heritage of the community
in a way that encourages public recognition and participation
so that people will have a greater knowledge and appreciation
of the community of Carmel-by-the-Sea and its sphere of
influence. First Murphy House is owned by the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea
and maintained by the Carmel Heritage Society. Residents
and visitors can enjoy historic exhibits, and our growing
research library consists of video and audio tapes, books
and periodicals about the history of Carmel. The First Murphy
House is a unique place to meet friends and reminisce.
The
Carmel Heritage Society has provided the community with
a variety of historic gifts. Funding and awards for history
education, a format for the preservation and sharing of
important historical information, and the preservation of
buildings have all played an important part in holding on
to the relevant historical information and structures for
future generations to enjoy.
