Close The Flood Gates!!
With these recent storms and flood warnings in Martinez, it is timely to consider other flooding events that have occurred throughout the long history of our city and how they compare to today’s.
Romantic Martinez at the Museum
Martinez Historical Society is looking for historic memorabilia (prior 1950) for our new Romantic Martinez display. Your family history can be part of our next exhibit!
Martinez In Contra Costa
"Just thirty-five miles around the corner from San Francisco, where the waters from Suisun Bay and Carquinez Straits mingle, is Martinez, the county seat of Contra Costa. In traveling there by rail one follows the winding water front of Contra Costa from Berkeley to Martinez."
Calling All Historians
We invite all Martinez individuals — families, adults, children, business people, frontline and essential workers, first-responders, etc. — to help us record life in Martinez during the 2020 Coronavirus/Shelter-in-Place
Your contributions will be saved in the Martinez Museum and shared with visitors to the museum interested in learning about these strange times.
