During the War of 1812, General Hull's army, en route from Dayton to Detroit, constructed a road from Fort Findlay north to the Maumee River. This road, the only north and south route for many years, passed through and helped create what is now the city of Bowling Green, Ohio.

Incorporated as a village in 1855, Bowling Green has experienced many changes. Residents thrived off of the farmland and soon business began to develop. Securing a State College for the city in 1910 and the H.J. Heinz plant in 1914 Bowling Green expanded into a small town city with endless possibilities.

Relive the memories with five of WBGU-PBS' featured productions on the history of this city. The first four productions contain features from the 150th Anniversary - or Sesquicentennial - which took place in 1983, followed by the upcoming production of Bowling Green Mayors, filmed later this year - coinciding with the 175th Anniversary of the city, or Terquasquicentennial of the city.
