Temporarily closed Once a Frontier Tavern . . .

The tavern was the center of activities in the small settlement community of Troy, Ohio. It was the place to meet area residents and travelers, to find society, comfortable lodging, and good food and drink. Until 1811 the County Court met in an upstairs room of the tavern. The tavern also housed the local Masonic Lodge, one of the first in the state of Ohio.

Looking for something to do to celebrate America 250? Come out on July 8 for a live reading of the Declaration of Independence, just as it was read on July 8, 1776. There will also be a ribbon cutting for a new exhibit in the courthouse that The Troy Historical Society helped develop as well as tours of the courthouse, live music, food trucks, and more!

Did you know the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence took place on July 8, 1776?

In honor of this pivotal moment in America's history, join us on July 8, 2026 at 5pm for our own public reading of the Declaration on the courthouse plaza. This is a free community event recognizing the document that helped shape our nation.
