  The Ross County Heritage Center operated by the Ross County Historical Society
 

Preserving the Past in the Present for the Future since 1896


The Ross County Historical Society was founded in 1896 to commemorate the centennial of the founding of Chillicothe Ohio and to preserve and promote the study of the history of the city, Ross County and the surrounding region. One hundred years later, the Society's mission remains the same. The RCHS conducts educational programs for people of all ages, saves and preserves for posterity historical artifacts and documents, and operates three museums and a library. All are open to the public.
