The bridge was completed through volunteer efforts in 1992. 1200 bricks line the pathway of the east side of the bridge. Each brick identifies a local veteran who served in one of our nation's conflicts. This newly remodeled historical museum once belonged to Daniel Mooney, a former ambassador to Paraguay. Early Auglaize history is represented here with many artifacts and photos.
Tours are available by appointment.
223 S. Main St., St. Marys. This 3.5 mile path is a beautiful hiking trail from St. Marys Memorial Park to Forty Acre Pond just north of St. Marys. Also along the canal on Route 66 is Bloody Bridge. Although the old bridge has been replaced, a monument tells the tragic story of two men who fought for the love of a canal boat captain's daughter in the 1850's. One of only three hatcheries in Ohio, the St. Marys site is the only one that has largemouth bass.
