Amish Buggy Near Berlin, Ohio

Amish buggy near Berlin, OH

The beautiful and intriguing Berlin, Ohio area is the heart of the state's Amish country. The Amish share a strong faith and live a simple life. Most Amish folk choose to forgo modern conveniences and practice their traditional customs based upon time-honored beliefs.

The Berlin area (and Amish country in general) is a land of striking contrasts. Modern automobiles share the roads with horses and buggies. One farm might be tilled with a tractor while the next one relies on horses and mules. It is simply amazing how well the traditional lifestyle of the Amish seems to co-exist with the fast-paced 21st century world of "the English".


If you enjoy picturesque rural landscapes and friendly people, you'll love the
Amish areas of Ohio. Holmes County's Amish Country Byway is a must-visit for
any Berlin, OH Amish area vacation. You'll be able to witness the simple Amish
and Mennonite lifestyles while enjoying some of the most spectacular scenery in
the country!
