The Wagon Shop - 1840

The Wagon Shop is where wagons and buggies were constructed. The wagon-maker, like all workmen of the day, worked from daylight until dusk six days a week. They usually completed one wagon in a winter.

In later years, some wagons were sold to nearby farmers who considered the Zoar-made product stronger and more durable than those available from factories. The Wagon Shop was reconstructed in 1972 by the Ohio History Connection, and is open to the public.
