Happy Columbus Day

Schiller Park
Happy Columbus Day, Columbus Ohio. Pictured is the monument and flower garden at Schiller Park in German Village which is a restored neighborhood of Columbus Ohio. It was named for Mr. Friederich von Schiller a German Poet. The German immigrants came in the mid 1800 and developed the neighborhood as a settlement for the German immigrants who brought their beer making skills to the area. Today the area caters to tourists with architectural tours and restaurants.
