Being deeply impressed with the importance of preserving facts connected with the settlement,
rise and progress, civil and ecclesiastical,
of this township...”

These thoughtful words from the constitution of the Tallmadge Historical Society were penned March 24, 1858, in the Old Town Hall. That was the first meeting of what is now the oldest historical society in Ohio.

The Society normally holds six meetings per year, featuring speakers on local and regional history. In March, April, October, and November, meetings are held on the second Tuesday of the month. The May annual business meeting is held on a Saturday, and the December event is usually scheduled for the second Sunday.

The second floor of the old Town Hall and Academy was converted into a museum, using many Tallmadge artifacts. The public is welcome during open house or by special request. The remodeled first floor, complete with a kitchen, is now available for meetings, receptions, and other events.

To reserve the first floor, schedule a tour, or learn about upcoming events, please call the Society’s office at 330-630-9760.
