Come visit our Historic Village and journey back to the mid 1800's exploring the wonderful heritage of our forefathers. Walk into an 1850 period log cabin and see how people cooked, slept, washed, and entertained themselves. Visit the 1890 Grandview School and try to imagine how it must have been to attend a one-room school house. *
Step down the lane and visit the 1876 Colwell Church and admire the simple beauty of the worship area and altar. Cross the tracks and visit one of Hilliard's original train stations built in 1891. Step up to the Chesapeake & Ohio Caboose and see what life was for an early conductor. Walk into our 1870 barn and touch and explore the farm equipment of the period.
Stroll through our air-conditioned 4000 square foot museum where you will see a blend of art and history exploring the growth of Northwest Franklin County featuring a collection of local historical artifacts and displays. The museum is adjacent to the village. |
