The Austin Czech Historical Association (ACHA) is a non-profit organization located in Austin, Texas, that is dedicated to preserving the history and culture of Czech-Americans in Central Texas. Established in 1983, ACHA is a membership-based organization that welcomes anyone interested in Czech heritage to join.

The association's mission is to promote the history, culture, and traditions of Czech-Americans through educational activities, cultural events, and genealogical research. ACHA manages a library of books, photographs, and documents related to Czech history and genealogy, which is open to the public. They also offer a variety of educational programs, including lectures, workshops, and exhibits.

In addition to educational activities, ACHA hosts several cultural events throughout the year, including the annual Czech Fest, which celebrates Czech heritage with traditional food, music, and dance. They also hold a Christmas party, Easter egg decorating party, and a kolache baking party.

The association is run by a volunteer board of directors and relies on donations and membership fees to support its operations.
