Napoleon

Historic Travel Guide to
 Ripley County
The former Tavern Inn is situated on an early stagecoach route from Cincinnati to Indianapolis. Probably built sometime in the 1820's, the Central House is a familiar Napoleon landmark. The two story Federal style structure has six rooms, three upstairs and three downstairs. This type of architecture is common in the eastern United States; however it is rare in Indiana.  One of several inns in Napoleon during the early years of the Nineteenth Century, the building serves as a reminder of Napoleon's importance early in its history. The National Register of Historic Places listed the Central House on September 23, 1982.
