The Oberlin House:

The Oberlin House: Originally built in 1847, during the height of the Ohio Canal Era, the Oberlin House is a "Salt-box" style structure. The house was restored in the early 1970's. It had been donated to the Heritage Society by Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Mitchell. Mrs. Mitchell is the granddaughter of the Oberlin family.
The house serves as a living history museum. Visitors are guided back in time by "Mrs. Oberlin" or another costumed member of the Oberlin family who narrates the tour as though chatting with travelers of a century ago.
