One of my favorite places is Sauder's Village in Archbold, OH.
Take with a walk through time in Ohio's largest historic village that captures Ohio life 1803 to 1928. Hear stories shared by historically costumed guides in historic homes and shops, take a ride on the Erie Express train, visit animals in the farmyard and marvel at working craftsmen blending skill and creativity in glass, metal, fiber, wood and clay.
I lost my photos for our last visit to the village :( that I wanted to share with you. So I will be sharing ones weekly from their FB page as they highlight "SauderVillageABC".
T is for Theater.
Engaging local people of all ages, silent films were the epitome of modern entertainment in the 1920s. Initially films were silent and had to rely on pure visual excitement. Pianists, organists or orchestras were hired to play during the film. Silent movie stars of the time included Greta Garbo, Rudolph Valentino, Charlie Chaplin, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. Adding sound to movies in 1927 attracted even more audiences. Sound effects such as creaking doors, gunfire, squealing tires, along with dialogue and music, greatly enhanced the moviegoer’s experience.
While strolling along our 1920s Main Street, be sure to stop by the Theater to take a peek at what’s playing on the big screen! Beyond silent films, this space may also be utilized by the public for weddings, special events, and conferences.
