1800's Rural Village and Homestead
​


Includes the Mt. Tabor United Brethern log church(Circa 1850) Glass family log home (Circa 1804) Dr. Daniel Fahrney's Office & Apothecary building,  a Cobbler's shop, Broom Maker's shop, Spickler's Country Store and Blacksmith shop.  All of these buildings, except the Blacksmith, Broommakers and Cobblers Shop, were moved from their original locations to the Village and are maintained in their native condition.

On the hill above the Rural Village is the Rural Homestead.  On this site is a 1939 windmill from the Doubs farm, two family log homes, an outdoor drying shed, brick fired wood oven, a Frick 1939 sawmill, and a German 4-Square Garden with heirloom plants with a "three sisters" patch of corn, beans and squash.
