AT T R AC T I O N S FORBIDDEN BARREL BREWING CO.

HISTORIC DAYTON HOUSE

Forbidden Barrel Brewing Co. offers a rotation of four to six original beers made on site as well as a variety of porters, stout, IPAs, honey wheats and other high-end brews. The name and logo are derived from an 1872 story about East Coast settlers who didn’t abide by Worthington’s temperance movement. During a Fourth of July celebration, Prof. Ransom Humiston, Worthington’s founder, learned there was a keg of beer in the Worthington House Hotel, so he seized it, dragged it outside and destroyed it with an axe. Call 507-343-3880 or visit www.forbiddenbarrel.com

The Historic Dayton House is a genuine showcase of Worthington’s early days. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This magnificent house was built in 1890 by George Draper Dayton. He arrived in Worthington in 1883 and recognizing Worthington’s potential, helped establish a thriving agricultural community. In 1902, the family left Worthington to pursue a mercantile business in Minneapolis which later became Dayton’s Dry Goods Company, or simply Dayton’s. The house was purchased by Historic Worthington, Inc., an organization formed to preserve local historic buildings. Through thoughtful donations, this legendary home has been preserved for future generations. For tour, overnight lodging or event planning information please call 507-727-1311 or visit www.daytonhouse.org.

CRAILSHEIM, GERMANY SISTER CITY

Founded in 1947, the sister-city relationship between Worthington and Crailsheim, Germany began as a post WWII relief effort. Crailsheim was chosen because it was close in size and structure to Worthington. Tons of clothing and donated items arrived in Crailsheim which was 70% bombed. Pen-pal relationships began and a student exchange program was initiated. The exchange students arrive in late July or early August and stay with four different families throughout the year. The sister-city relationship was given the honor of receiving the first WORLD BROTHERHOOD AWARD in 1958. Many official visits and personal friendships have resulted from this relationship. It is believed to be one of the oldest and most viable relationships that has survived post WWII. Contact with Worthington Crailsheim International, Inc. may be made through the City of Worthington at 507-372-8600.
