Tour Over-the-Rhine with German-American historian Dr. Don Heinrich Tolzmann
Welcome to Over-the-Rhine,
the historic old German quarter of Cincinnati. Even today, the German-American
history is easy to see in this section of downtown. Crossing the Erie
Canal, today Central Parkway, you enter into the German-speaking district
of Alt-Cincinnati! This site highlights this important section of town
and hopes to draw attention to the treasures located there so that they
may be preserved and the history never forgotten. Take
the tour!
