Meeting rooms
The building (which is owned by the Town of Bremen) also has meeting rooms available for community events, accessible from the old bank entrance at the corner of Plymouth and Center and through the History Center itself. The History Center makes use of these for our History Chat events. The meeting rooms are decorated in part with the popular movie murals painted by Bremen High School students in the 1950s and ’60s.
The Bremen History Center is located at 111 N. Center St. in Bremen, Indiana. It is open to visitors, free of charge, every Tuesday and Saturday from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. and by appointment.
To make a special appointment to see the History Center, call 574-315-8327.
