Every performer in the Valentine Theatre has their heart in the right place. The entertainment venue is located in downtown Toledo and has an impressive history of being open for the past 108 years. This comfortable theater features an obviously vintage vibe but also boasts a state of the art light and sound system that ensures you won't miss any of the action onstage. The 901-seat facility presents various productions throughout the season to the delight of many Toledo theater enthusiasts.

While it may be true that history is all around us, sometimes you have to travel a bit to get to it. That is the case with Sauder Farm and Craft Village. Located about an hour's drive outside of Toledo, this historical attraction vividly demonstrates what rural life was like in Ohio back in the 1800s. Visit a blacksmith, a potter, and a general store as well as a popular quilt shop. There are also many historic homes and picturesque gardens that you can stroll through. And, if you get hungry, enjoy a delicious meal at the nearby Barn Restaurant.

When you find yourself searching for something unique and unusual for your home, look no further than Toledo's Architectural Artifacts, Inc. This is one of those places that offers an incredible selection of vintage items that are aptly described by the name of this well-stocked establishment. The store features an amazing collection of doors, mantels, cabinets, stained glass, furniture and hardware that are all one-of-a-kind pieces that will surely add depth and character to any décor.

History is both preserved and highlighted at the Fort Meigs State Memorial. This fort was the largest walled fortification in the country. The structure was ordered to be built by President William Henry Harrison on the south side of the Maumee River in 1812. This was the site of two important battles of the War of 1812. The historic attraction has been restored and was even the site of a massive archeological excavation that was started in the 1960s. There are self-guided tours available as well as various demonstrations that offer an even more detailed look at a fascinating piece of United States history.
