Historic Courthouse to be Exhibit for NATO Parliamentary Assembly in Dayton

The old Montgomery County Court house is being transformed into a museum ahead of a NATO delegation coming to Dayton on Memorial Day weekend.

Dayton History and the Dayton Society of Natural History have partnered with the Truman and Clinton Presidential Libraries to create the “Dayton Around the World” exhibit.  The exhibit will feature a curated collection of original and replica documents, historic photographs, and a variety of geologic and fossil specimens discovered in the Miami Valley. It will also include historical materials from the NATO Parliamentary Assembly and select artifacts on loan from the Truman and Clinton Presidential Libraries.

The exhibit will be open throughout the 2025 NATO Parliamentary Assembly Spring Session, and will remain accessible to the public from May 27-29 from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The courthouse’s first floor will be open for tours and equipped with public restrooms for visitors.
