Zanesville: The Y-Bridge and Muskingum County
Zanesville sits at the confluence of the Licking and Muskingum Rivers in eastern Ohio and serves as the seat of Muskingum County. The city was founded in 1797 by Ebenezer Zane, who was cutting Zane's Trace from Wheeling to Maysville, Kentucky. Zanesville briefly served as the state capital from 1810 to 1812 before the permanent capital was established in Columbus. The city's distinctive Y-Bridge, first built in 1814 and replaced several times since, carries traffic across both rivers at the same point and is believed to be the only active three-way bridge of its kind in the United States.
Zanesville was a major pottery center from the late nineteenth century through the mid-twentieth, with the Weller Pottery, the Roseville Pottery, and the Owens Pottery all based in the area. Their art pottery remains collectible, and the Zanesville Art Museum preserves examples of local production. The Mead paper mill, founded in Chillicothe, operated a large kraft paper mill in Zanesville for decades before closures reshaped the regional economy.
The Muskingum County Courthouse on the public square dates from 1874 and has been extensively renovated while retaining its original appearance. The Secrest Auditorium, a 2,300-seat performing arts venue, hosts touring shows and local productions. The Wilds, a 9,154-acre conservation center for endangered species, is located about 20 miles from Zanesville in neighboring Muskingum and Morgan Counties.
