The L&N Railroad Depot was built in 1881 and was used for many years to direct area freight and passenger service before it was replaced and moved across the street from the railroad station where it sat for many years. The building was badly damaged by fire in 1979.
In 1982, the damaged building was purchased and was moved up the hill to its present location, by 1983 the beautiful restoration of the old Depot was completed.
The Depot's charm and distinctive character will long be a reminder of the "olden days" when the trains whistled and belched over America. Marianna is fortunate to have such a fine restoration of an 1800 landmark, which serves very effectively today as an office complex. |
