The North End Historical Society (NEHS) is a non-profit community organization "committed to uncovering the rich and dynamic history of" the North End neighborhood in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.[2] Incorporated in 2010, the mission of the organization "is to collect and preserve the historical record and material culture of Boston's North End, and to preserve, catalog, and present these resources in service to the wider community through publications, lectures, educational programs, and exhibits."[2]

In April 2025, the organization announced plans to establish its first permanent physical location, at 3 Prince Street in Boston, along the Freedom Trail.[3] The "heritage center" is intended to feature exhibits about notable area events including the Great Molasses Flood of 1919 and the Great Brink's Robbery of 1950.[3]
