The Fremantle Society was established in 1972 and has since then sought to improve the quality of life in Fremantle and to protect the existing unique built and cultural heritage.

Archives

The Society has an extensive archive of documentary material stretching back over its whole history, much of which is of general interest to Fremantle residents.
