Landmarks are more than statues and great buildings--they tell the world
what is important to a community. Behind every landmark is a story, and
Cincinnati has many stories. A charming gazebo is actually the site of a
grisly murder committed by a gangster. Symphonies and operas performed
in an elegant hall are actually serenading the forgotten dead of a
century before. What is now an office building once held the relics of
an ancient saint, attracting thousands of pilgrims every year. These and
many other stories make up the tapestry of Cincinnati Landmarks.
