President's Welcome

Welcome to Franklin County! A place where the history, beauty and friendly people will leave you wanting more. A place where the door is always open with and invitation to come back real soon.

There is always something going on in Franklin County. Whether you drive through our rolling hills and valleys, or along the fields of grain or down Main Street and see the American flags on each light pole. There is always someone with a new idea or an old fashioned tradition to share. A place where two rivers and a lot of good people come together "a place to raise a family". Our door is always open with an invitation to visit us.

Did you know...


...that on May 10, 1907, the Chamber of Commerce purchased nine acres of ground on the bend of the Whitewater River that became Brookville's first pubic park.

...that on September 25, 1912, the Chamber built the first foot bridge across the west fork of the Whitewater River.

...that in January 1941, the Chamber sponsored the first Canal Preservation that resulted in the Metamora Historic Canal site.


Brookville needed the Chamber then, and it needs it now.
