Used as a city marketplace from 1846 until 1910, the Old Market House acted as a central place of commerce and gathering in the town's formative years. Even after ceasing to act as a place of public commerce, the Greek Revival building served the community as a fire house and held the city council chambers. The building today contains exhibits on regional history and hosts various special seasonal community events. Located in the center of historical Galena, the Ulysses S. Grant Home and Elihu B. Washburne House are both within a mile of the building.
