Nehalem Valley Historical Society (NVHS) is a non-profit organization situated in Manzanita, a small coastal town in Tillamook County, Oregon. The society was established in 1973 to preserve and promote the historical and cultural heritage of Nehalem Valley, which includes the towns of Manzanita, Nehalem, and Wheeler.

The NVHS operates a museum that showcases exhibits and artifacts that depict the area's history, including the native tribes that once inhabited the region, pioneer settlements, logging and fishing industries, and local cultural traditions. The museum is housed in a historic building that was originally built as a school in 1912 and later served as a community center.

In addition to the museum, the NVHS conducts various educational programs and events throughout the year, such as lectures, walking tours, and cultural festivals. The society also maintains an extensive archive of historical documents, photographs, and other materials that are available for research purposes.

The NVHS is run by a group of dedicated volunteers who work tirelessly to collect, preserve, and share the rich history of Nehalem Valley with the community and visitors alike. The society relies on donations and membership fees to continue its important work of preserving the past for future generations.
