| Auglaize Village is a place where they have all kinds of old buildings, farm equipment, post, Dr. office, cider mill, blacksmith, log cutting, many, many more things. I and a few Sons have taken on the job of trying to save the old WWII Prisoner of War building that you see in the pictures this building was in Defiance along with many more that housed German Prisoners. The people in charge of the Village have turned it into a Military History Building as you can see from the pictures I am sending. Thanks Geno (Batt) Click for Additional photos |
