San Dieguito Heritage Museum

San Dieguito Heritage Museum is a Living History Museum in Encinitas, California in the United States. Founded in 1988, the museum displays historical photographs and artifacts from Encinitas and the outlying San Dieguito area.

San Dieguito historically is comprised of seven towns: Del Mar, Solana Beach, Encinitas, Cardiff by the Sea, Leucadia, Rancho Santa Fe, and Olivenhain, in the North Coastal Area of San Diego, California.

In 1993, the museum published "San Dieguito Heritage" by Maura Wiegand (ISBN 9780963592606). In 1998, San Dieguito Heritage Museum received a $5,000 challenge grant from the Thomas C. Ackerman Foundation.

In May 2008 the museum is scheduled to open a ground-breaking new exhibit on skateboarding in the San Diegito area. It will be the first such of its kind in Southern California.
