Preserving Our Heritage

The Kidron Community Historical Society located in Wayne County, Ohio, is dedicated to collecting, preserving and maintaining items of historical importance in the Kidron Sonnenberg community that was settled in 1819. We maintain a historical museum in downtown Kidron, with many items on display from the local community. A large genealogical database and research library is available in the museum, with a focus on Amish and Mennonite ancestry. Currently, we are in the process of moving several historical buildings to a dedicated site, called Sonnenberg Village. We welcome you to browse our site and learn more about our Swiss heritage.
