Gallipolis Railway Freight Station Museum

The Gallipolis Railroad Freight Station Museum, located at 918 Third Avenue in Gallipolis, Ohio, was established in 1901 and served as a vital freight depot until its closure in 1981. After years of deterioration, a dedicated group of residents formed the museum in 2016 to preserve this historical site, which has since welcomed visitors from 28 states and four countries.

The museum has received several accolades, including the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce's Beautification Award and a $125,000 grant from the Ohio General Assembly. With ongoing restoration efforts and community support, the museum continues to celebrate the rich history of the Gallipolis Hocking Valley Railroad and its impact on the region.
