We are the
only
national historic landmark in Ventura County, fifteen miles west of
Santa Clarita along highway 126. If you are a history buff, this is the
place for you. We are in the process of archival of many items related
to Old California's Spanish era when much of California was divided by
land grants. The del Valle family and Rubel family influenced the
discovery and founding of Ventura County and the Newhall/Castaic area
thru cattle, agriculture and oil production. Rancho Camulos was also
made famous by the novel,
Ramona,
written by legendary author Helen Hunt Jackson about the plight of the
American Indian in 1884.
We are a
growing museum. If you are interested in historic preservation,
reenactment and docent led tours, we need you. Join us as we move
forward in archiving, planning and preserving this national treasure.
