The Union City Depot is a genuine 1913 railroad building restored to its original condition by the Art Association of Randolph County. Of the five Rail Depots originally located in Union City, only the AARC’s structure remains. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Historic Union City Depot is a beautiful, unique experience!
The Art Association houses their Executive Director in the building, which has ongoing art displays as well as events throughout the year. The Randolph County Art Association host a Farmer’s Market on the Depot grounds in late summer.

The Mansion Bed and Breakfast Inn, located on 1.5 acres of formal English gardens, is an extraordinary example of Tudor-Revival architecture. A present to his daughter Estelle upon her marriage to Mr. Paul Keck in 1927, Mr. R.C. Schemmel adopted the style and grace of an English Manor House and the renowned architectural firm of E.J. Hughes of Dayton, Ohio brought the original plans to the United States.
The Lambert-Parent House, circa. 1881, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The house is a prime example of Italianate style architecture and of a village cottage of the period. All of the original rooms are as they were when built and the original woodwork is still in place as well as sliding wall doors. Only one fireplace remains of the original three. There are eight large rooms including three bedrooms and ten foot ceilings throughout the house.
Lambert-Parent House is located at 631 East Elm, Union City, Ohio 45390
