The Ohio Theatre in Loudonville, Ohio, is a Neoclassical municipal building completed in 1910 and designed by Mansfield architect Vernon Redding. Constructed at a cost of just over $33,000 through a 5% bond system, it opened in 1911 as a multipurpose civic structure housing village offices, fire department, and jail on the ground floor, with council chambers, police department, and public library on the second. The building's centerpiece was a 700-seat opera house at the rear, which served the community for civic gatherings, cultural events, and live entertainment. Built on the site of an earlier theatrical structure dating to 1874, the theatre was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 under the name "City Hall and Opera House."
