Overview

The Capitola Historical Museum, operated by the City of Capitola, preserves and promotes the history of Capitola through creating exhibitions, maintaining a collection of historic photographs and artifacts, conducting oral histories, and participating in special events. The museum's goal is to promote, through the establishment and maintenance of a museum and allied projects, a program that will bring a better understanding and appreciation by the Capitola community of its history, architecture, culture, technology, and its creative and natural environments.

The Capitola Historical Museum offers a new, major annual exhibition on the history and art of the area. The museum grounds include a furnished 1907 Beach Cottage and an early 20th century Bath House. The museum also provides rotating exhibitions at the Capitola Library and maintains an extensive storage collection of Capitola related photographs and artifacts.
