Pasadena Heritage Society – NL Inc.
Collecting, Preserving, and Promoting the History and Heritage of Pasadena, Newfoundland and Labrador
Who We Are
Our Story begins as a grassroots organization following a successful heritage display during Pasadena’s Come Home Year 2012. Formed as an advisory committee to Town Council in 2014, the committee quickly outgrew its role. We launched our website and Facebook page in 2015.
In September 2022, we incorporated as a non-profit.

Why a Bridge for our logo?
Built in 1936 by J.J. Gale. This style of bridge, known as a Bow Arch or Tied Bow bridge, was quite popular in the 1930s. Only a handful remain standing in the province today. All but one are closed to traffic.

Listen to an oral description of the bridge along with memories shared by current and former residents of the community.Â
