Meadville's Market House

Established in 1870, the Market House of Meadville, Pennsylvania, perseveres as a community focal point for decades.

Special events are frequently staged honoring the area's rural foundations and traditions plus arts and crafts of the region. The local cafe is a favorite offering a variety of specialties throughout the week.
