Live as Millersburg residents do and enjoy historic downtown by visiting the Holmes County Courthouse built in the late 19th century. Located on the lawn next to the courthouse is a jail, another nationally registered historic place. American Hall is another beautiful building in the heart of downtown built with red bricks and beautiful white windows. Also, the Victorian House is a 28-room Queen Anne style house with equally beautiful architecture to inspire some redecorating of your own! Close to the Victorian House is the Holmes County Cultural Center Campus where you’ll find the Millersburg Glass Museum. You can familiarize yourself with the history behind the local glass plant and why these pieces of art are cherished by collectors around the world. These buildings and more make your trip to historic downtown seem like a step back in time. You even have a chance to take a bit of the past home with you by attending the annual Holmes County Antique Festival. If you missed it, not to worry because Antiques in the Alley is another full-day event held in downtown Millersburg.
If you like to hike or bike in addition to antiquing, visit the Rails to Trails path. Old railroad tracks were removed in this area and hiking trails were put in their place, in fact these trails are one of the first in the United States to have a lane for Amish buggies! Along the trail you will see wildlife and wildflowers but keep your binoculars close because you might see turtles sunning themselves in the nearby Killbuck Marsh! As Ohio’s largest Amish settlement, you’ll really get a feel of old and new in Millersburg.
