Overfield Tavern, Historic tavern in Troy, United States.
The Overfield Tavern is a two-story log building with distinctive corner joinery, constructed in 1808 beside the Great Miami River. The property holds multiple structures connected together from different periods of construction.
Benjamin Overfield founded this tavern in 1808, which served as Troy's first courthouse until 1811. This marked the start of organized local governance in the region.
The building served as a meeting place where travelers and residents gathered for lodging and food. You can see how people spent their time here and how the tavern connected the community.
The oldest building in Troy can be visited through guided tours that feature artifacts from frontier life in Ohio. Plan time to explore the different rooms and attached structures across the property.
A small one-room log cabin built by Benjamin Overfield in 1803 remains attached to the main tavern structure. This original dwelling reveals how early settlers lived before the larger building was added.
