Situated in the Mount Auburn district of Cincinnati, this beautifully crafted Greek revival house is famously known for being the birthplace and childhood home of William Howard Taft and his family. It is also part of William Howard Taft National Historic Site since 1969.
This large circular, domed mausoleum is the final resting place of William McKinley, the 25th president of the United States. McKinley was born in Niles, Ohio but he called Canton home throughout his adult life. He began his career in this city, met his beloved wife, and ran for the highest office of the nation here. His election in 1896 launched an era of Republican dominance that continued until 1910. McKinley governed during a period of intense American expansionism.
