2016 Map of New Knoxville

About this map

Neil Armstrong Airport sits as a prominent modern landmark just north of the Auglaize and Shelby county line, reflecting the aviation legacy of this West Ohio region. The landscape is defined by its agricultural layout and small, historic town centers like New Knoxville, New Bremen, and Minster. A high density of pioneer-era burial grounds, including the Pilger Ruhe Cem and German Cem, provides a detailed record of early families in the area. To the south, the waters of Lake Loramie and the settlement at Lehmkuhl Landing mark a shift from the upland farms to the recreational and drainage systems of the Loramie Creek watershed. The inclusion of the N Country National Scenic Trail (Buckeye Trail) winding through the western portion of the quadrangle shows how contemporary conservation efforts have integrated with the long-established rural road network.
