Ohio Village is an interactive living history museum located in Columbus, Ohio. It is part of the Ohio History Center and managed by the Ohio Historical Society.
The village offers the opportunity to visualize life in Ohio during the difficult times of American Civil War.
It was opened in 1974 on 15 acres and includes 22 buildings, a mix of historic houses moved to the site from other locations, and faithful reproductions. Among them are the Town Hall, General Store and Masonic Lodge, Print Shop, Education Center, Blacksmith Shop, Pharmacy, Tinsmith Shop, Cabinetmaker/Undertaker's Shop, Broom and Basket Shop, Village Bakery, and others. In 1995, a large church was added to allow weddings to be held in the village. One of the most popular events organized in the village is the All Hallow's Eve, a traditional 1860s-style celebration of Halloween.
