A neat bit of Ohio River Valley history nestled in Anderson Township. Anderson Township Historical Society does a nice job of preserving this piece of architectural history. It is one of only a handful of structures that still stand from when the area was originally settled in the 1700's. An interesting fact is that the house was continuously lived in for 170 years. It wasn't until 1971, when the Anderson Township Historical Society purchased the property that that record came to an end. Miller-Leuser House is named after the 1st and last family who occupied the home. The house has been on the National Register of Historic Homes since 1974.
If in the are, or looking to visit a historic site for school/Scouts this is an easy site to tour quickly. Our visit was less than 30 minutes. The site makes for a nice educational detour if you will. A bonus is that there is no fee for visiting the site. Donations are always welcome.
Pre COVID, the home was open for tours the 1st and 3rd Sunday, May-October, 1-4pm, and by appointment. They also ran plant sales, and a country store the last weeked in September to raise funds for restoration and upkeep.
