Welcome to Marietta, Ohio 

Located at the confluence of the Ohio and Muskingum Rivers, Marietta, Ohio, was the first permanent settlement in the Northwest Territory. Our historic, vibrant, community possesses the feel of old world European charm. Nestled in the heart of the mid-Ohio valley, we’re about two hours from Columbus, OH and Pittsburgh, PA. We’re home to Marietta College, Washington State Community College, numerous companies from various industries and a downtown that offers unexpected finds and uncommon treasures.

The pedestrian-friendly, tree-lined streets offer a vibrant blend of parks and historic buildings, specialty shops and businesses, fine dining and coffee shops.. Large enough to offer a variety of experiences, yet small enough that people smile and wave and know your name. We're a safe community, a thriving community, and an exciting community that has a lot to offer residents and visitors.
