The Perry County Bicentennial Barn is located 1 mile west of Somerset, Ohio on US RT 22. The Perry County Historical Society in cooperation with the Ohio Bicentennial Commission dedicated the Perry County Barn on Friday, April 28, 2000. The barn, owned by the Holland family, is the 35th barn in Ohio to be painted by the Bicentennial Commission. The Bicentennial Commission has plans to paint a barn in each of Ohio's 88 Counties.
