• Arrive in Sugarcreek. Swiss cheese, a railroad, hardworking people, a painter, brick factories, and coal mines have a part in Sugarcreek's history. In 1882, a railroad built in the Sugar Creek valley brought new opportunities. The depot was about a mile east of Shanesville, and a cluster of buildings soon sprang up around it. By 1888, the growing settlement wanted its own post office and a new name. Previously known as "the town east of Shanesville," the area became "Sugar Creek," named after a nearby stream. Eventually the two villages grew together, but it wasn't until 1969 that they officially merged under the name of Sugarcreek. Don’t miss the World’s Largest Cuckoo clock in the downtown area!
