Betts House, The

Built in 1804, The Betts House, Ohio’s oldest brick house, is located in the Betts-Longworth Historic District in Cincinnati’s West End. The Betts House opened to the public in 1996 as a museum dedicated to interpreting Cincinnati’s regional history through the built environment. Tours of the house showcase its history and construction. An ongoing exhibit features a timeline of the house and Betts family paired with the history of Cincinnati and the United States. The Betts House also supports the fields of construction and architecture with a summer outreach program, Bond at the Betts, providing youth from inner-city neighborhoods with a hands-on introduction to the building trades.
