Teeming with historic points of interest, charming antique shops, family-run restaurants, and an abundance of old and new attractions, Lebanon is a place that’s peak small-town vibes and the perfect place for a weekend getaway in Ohio — especially during the holiday season. Because in November and December, Lebanon transforms into a magical Ohio Christmas town that’s irresistibly charming; the kind of picture-perfect place that’s straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting.

Downtown Lebanon is classic Americana at its finest: well-maintained old buildings, century-old houses, diners, and lots of downtown charm.
