The History Trust of South Australia, sometimes referred to as History SA, was created as a statutory corporation by the History Trust of South Australia Act 1981, to safeguard South Australia’s heritage and to encourage research and public presentations of South Australian history. It operates three museums in the state: the Migration Museum, the National Motor Museum and the South Australian Maritime Museum. It runs the month-long South Australia's History Festival (previously SA History Week) annually, and manages the Adelaidia and SA History Hub websites. It also manages, in collaboration with the State Library of South Australia, the Centre of Democracy.
