Chardon Business District

This block of Main Street overlooks the Geauga County Courthouse, which was built in 1869. The court house and the Main Street buildings, together which compose a district that has been entered on the National Register of Historic Places, are excellent examples of the High Victorian Italianate architectural style. Going north from Court Street, the first two buildings were erected in 1873. The Opera House dates from 1875. the jail was constructed in 1868 just after the fire, followed by the new jail of 1874, and the sheriff's house of 1909. Memorial Hall (now the Courthouse Annex) dates from 1875. last on the block is the Victorian Gothic Church built in 1882.
