The Belmont Historical Society is a non-profit, 501 C(3) organization run by volunteers and funded by annual membership dues, donations and proceeds from various fund raisers.
In 1727 Belmont was originally chartered as part of Gilmanton and eventually became Upper Gilmanton in 1859.
The name of the town was changed to “Belmont” in 1869 and the Belmont Historical Society was formed 100 years later on the anniversary.
For four decades, Belmont Historical Society Members and friends have volunteered energy and time to preserving our special places and stories. Saving and adapting the Belmont Mill for a new community life is just one difference that the local Society has made.
Presentations are free and open to the public and refreshments are provided. The facility is handicapped accessible.
Help keep Belmont’s history alive and bringing historical programs to the community. Membership form.
