Art connoisseurs gather at the Columbus Museum of Art.

Welcome to Schiller Park, the heartbeat of the city's historic German Village District.

Today, the enchanting park pays homage to its original name and serves as a host to attractions, historical monuments, a recreational center, a fishing pond, and center stage to the Actors' Theater of Columbus.
