VISITORS GUIDE

Not just good... HOME. GROWN. GREAT. Bradford | Conover | Covington | Fletcher | Laura | Piqua | Pleasant Hill Tipp City | Troy | West Milton

That special feeling begins the moment you enter beautiful Miami County. In direct contrast to surrounding urban congestion, the region is still green, still fresh with endless acres of forest and fields of rich nurturing soil. No surprise, then, that our county’s heritage is rooted in agriculture. In Miami County, farming families have been growing the food that sustains Americans for decades.

Welcome!

But Miami County’s homegrown connections go much deeper. We value lack of congestion, quiet streets and award winning, historic communities.

A cordial area always welcoming of visitors, we offer an uncommon blend of unique attractions scattered throughout this scenic region.

In Miami County, the fun is a little fresher, a little more one-of-a-kind. That’s because our adventures are grown right here at home. Our three award winning historic downtowns have been perfectly preserved and are a magnet for both visitors and residents seeking a little charm, a lot of fun and maybe that special shopping discovery. And mere minutes from our downtown streets, is the Great Miami River, where a bike-way winds along the shore so that you may enjoy biking, kayaking, bird watching and running.

POINTS of INTEREST

PIQUA was named by the Shawnee Indians. While seated

around a fire following an annual fest, the tribe witnessed a great puffing in the ashes. Suddenly a full formed man sprang up from the remains of the fire and the tribe exclaimed “Otaht-he-wagh-Pe-Qua”, meaning “He has come out of the ashes.” In recognition of Piqua’s outstanding 19th and 20th Century architectural treasures, a 23 block section of the downtown area was entered into the National Register of Historic Places as the “Piqua-Caldwell Historic District.” Various walking tours are available through MainStreet Piqua. Piqua’s downtown district experienced a revitalization, which was so successful that it won “The 2003 Governor’s Award for Excellence”. Piqua is the only community in Ohio to receive this honored distinction.

TIPP CITY was originally named Tippecanoe in honor

of William Henry Harrison, whose campaign slogan was “Tippecanoe & Tyler Too.” John Clark developed Tippecanoe in 1840 and purposely situated the town to take advantage of the traffic on the Miami Erie Canal. In evidence of this, Tipp Roller Mill is situated at Lock #15 on the canal. The charming downtown district has over 90 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

215 W. Main Street, Troy • 937-440-5900 Open: Monday - Friday 8 am - 4 pm Combining beautiful Greek and Roman architecture with five cast iron domes, Ohio native J.W. Yost may have designed his masterpiece when invited to Miami County in 1885. Completed in 1888, the courthouse stands as one of the tallest structures in the county, towering 185 feet above the Great Miami River.

The tip of the building is fitted with a copper statue of justice with bronze statues in attendance. Inside, the dome is guarded by a number of colorful visages representing cultures from around the world. Frescoed plaster ceilings, arches ornamented with representations of local agricultural produce, marble wainscoting, mosaic tile, and brilliant wood work also make the inside of this structure an architectural treasure.
