The Dunbar Historical Society is a non-profit organization located in Dunbar, Pennsylvania. The society's primary focus is to preserve and promote the history of Dunbar and its surrounding areas. The organization was founded in 1985 by a group of local residents who were passionate about preserving the rich heritage of the town.

The Dunbar Historical Society operates a museum that houses a collection of artifacts, documents, and photographs that depict the history of the town. The museum is open to the public and offers guided tours for visitors. The society also hosts various events throughout the year, such as historical lectures, festivals, and fundraisers.

One of the most significant contributions of the Dunbar Historical Society is the restoration of the historic Jacob Bowman Homestead, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The society acquired the property in 1991 and has since restored the 18th-century log house and surrounding buildings to their original condition. The Bowman Homestead is now open to the public and serves as a living history museum.
