Neighborhood

Located just south of Downtown Columbus, German Village is a historic neighborhood brimming with old-fashioned charm and modern delights. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, German Village features beautiful red-brick homes along tree-lined streets in addition to renowned restaurants, shops, and a thriving Brewery District.

Although the neighborhood is close to fast-paced urban life, German Village contains green reprieves like Schiller Park and Frank Fetch Park. Scioto Audubon Metro Park and Bicentennial Park are also on the cusp of the neighborhood. German Village is convenient to major area employers like Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Grant Medical Center, and Columbus State Community College. Getting around from German Village is simple with quick access to U.S. 23, I-70, and I-71.
