Welcome to The 1833 event venue! Restoration and preservation is a passion of our team. It has been an amazing journey to preserve this historic landmark that houses so much history in our community of Troy, Ohio. The charm and beauty of this building, along with many modern updates, make this venue the perfect place for an intimate wedding and other small events. History:
• Built in 1833 and know

n as the oldest church building in Troy, Ohio.

• Originally built for the Trinity Episcopal Church on land donated by Troy’s very first doctor, Dr. Asa Coleman.

• It was on the church steps in 1837 that General Harrison addressed the people of Troy and officially opened up the Miami and Erie Canals. General Harrison went on to be the 9rd President of the United States.

• The church basement housed a public school up until 1848.

• Known as a vital part of the Underground Railroad. It is here that former slave Auntie Green lived and was said to have made her famous escape from slave hunters.

• The beautiful stained-glass windows installed in the early 1900’s have been restored to maintain their original integrity and condition.

• In 1955 the steeple of the church was removed due to structural concerns.

• The 1833 was used as a church until 1913 when the Troy Club took ownership. In 1941 it transferred back to the Trinity Episcopal church until the year of 2000 when the Family Abuse Shelter took ownership and was named the Barbell Atkins Education & Activity Center.

• In 2020, Historic Troy, LLC (Scott Strayer) purchased the church with a dream of bringing new life and use for this building that would still preserve history and contribute to downtown Troy, Ohio.
