DTHS was formed in 1967 after the proclamation of Shire of Doncaster and Templestowe as the City of Koonarra. It gained further impetus in 1971 from the need to preserve Schramm's Cottage when Doncaster Road was widened and the Council Offices erected.
DTHS is very grateful for the ongoing support it receives from Manningham Council in terms of maintaining the Schramm's Cottage Museum Complex and providing us with a variety of other support services.
Bendigo Community Bank in Doncaster East supports the improvement of facilities within the Schramm's Cottage Museum Complex.
The Rotary Club of Doncaster has been helping the DTHS especially with garden maintenance for decades
Since formation it has completed many major projects such as:
- Moving and rebuilding Schramm's Stone Cottage from Doncaster Road to its current location at Muriel Green Drive in 1971-1976
- Schramm's Cottage has been an accredited Museum with the Museums Accreditation Program from 2013
- DTHS has been a Registered Charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission since foundation.
- Publishing many booklets for local education and promotion of local history
