Glendale Heritage Preservation Museum

Glendale Heritage Preservation is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the rich history of Glendale, Ohio. Founded in 1974, the organization has played a vital role in mapping and cataloging existing buildings, leading to the listing of the Glendale Historic District in the National Register of Historic Places. The organization's headquarters, located in the 1880 Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton railroad depot, serves as a museum, gift shop, and archive storage facility, showcasing exhibits that change throughout the year.

The Glendale Heritage Preservation Museum, operated by the organization, offers visitors a glimpse into the past through its displays and a quick video that highlights Glendale's historical significance. The museum is housed in the beautifully restored former railroad depot, which was rebuilt in 1880 after a fire destroyed the original structure. Visitors can also explore the charming village of Glendale through a walking tour, immersing themselves in the Victorian era with its grand houses and tree-lined streets. The Black Squirrel Gift Shop, located within the museum, offers unique Glendale-themed gifts and is staffed by friendly volunteers.
