A new set of stairs leading to the building’s main entrance has been placed. Watch for further improvements to the museum site.

    The Oberlin Church was built in 1902 from an on-site donkey engine saw and local downed trees. The gray color the church is painted is the original color according to a find of some originally painted boards which had been hidden after a fire and remodel of the door area on the lower left side.
