The Switzerland County Historical Society Organized in 1925, Switzerland County has one of the oldest of Indiana’s county historical societies. The historical society owns and operates two museums and is developing a third site. The Switzerland County Historical Museum has been located in the former Presbyterian Church since 1970. The “Life on the Ohio” River History Museum is located in an adjacent building, formerly the parsonage for the church, and opened in 2004. The society is now developing an Agriculture Museum Center, with a hay press barn as the focal attraction. |
