Located in Bowling Green, Ohio, the Wood County Museum is housed in a former public charity building, which operated as the County Home or Infirmary, from 1869-1971. As a museum, the site features rotating exhibits & experiences for visitors. The Museum is open daily for self-guided tours.
This 51-acre site features a museum, paupers cemetery, original site structures, oil derrick, nature trails, herb gardens, and more!
