About this venue

The Friedhof building is currently celebrating its centennial anniversary! This building boasts historic beauty around every corner, and has been maintained to retain its classic, and original charm. Theodore Friedhof, the buildings’ namesake, constructed the structure to serve Columbus as a dry goods retailer in 1918. The craft of architecture and carpentry in construction during that particular era was bar none the best in quality, and style. The renovation and restoration of this space was performed with care to pay homage to the integrity of the style with this particular vintage of building.

    We recently had our wedding reception at The Friedhof building in Columbus. It was a very intimate venue and offered everything we were looking for at a fair price. We received many compliments from our guests on how beautiful and unique the venue was. The owners were helpful, easy to work with, and clearly know how to smoothly host an event like ours.
