CAMPUS MARTIUS WILL BE CLOSED MONDAY, MARCH 11 DUE TO STREETS WORK BY THE CITY OF MARIETTA.

 

The city of Marietta, located at the confluence of the Ohio and Muskingum Rivers, is the first permanent organized settlement in the Northwest Territory. After much deliberation, its name was chosen in honor of Marie Antoinette for France’s support of the colonies during the Revolutionary War. Campus Martius Museum is located at the corner of Washington and Second Streets in Marietta, Ohio.
