The Castle, History museum in Marietta, United States.
The Castle museum stands as a Gothic Revival house constructed in 1855, featuring period furniture and exhibits that reflect residential life from that era.
The property began as a pottery manufacturing site in 1808, making it one of the earliest industrial locations in the Northwest Territory of the United States.
The museum presents educational programs, history camps, and cemetery tours that connect visitors with the heritage of Marietta through artifacts and local stories.
Guided tours of The Castle operate throughout the year, with staff members explaining the architectural details and historical significance of each room.
Only five families resided in this property between 1808 and 1974, including lawyers, bankers, land speculators, and a President Pro Tem of the Ohio Senate.
