This one-room school is a part of the University's collection of pre-1940 educational memorabilia. The schoolhouse, built
in 1875, was originally located in Huron County, southeast of Norwalk, Ohio. The building was 100 years old when it was dismantled
and moved to the BGSU campus, to become a living history museum. Throughout the United States, only 12 colleges and universities
have one-room schools on campus. The building is visited by more than 1,000 people each year, a large percentage of which
are school children who come here for field trips.
For historical information about this building, see the Educational Memorabilia Center on BGSU’s Historic Campus Tour.
