"The Batesville Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003. Portions of the content of this web page were adapted from a copy of the original nomination document. [†] Adaptation copyright © 2014, The Gombach Group.
The Batesville Historic District is composed of 280 buildings including commercial buildings located in and around the area known as Public Square and the residential streets that radiate from that central location to the north, south, and east. The character of the district is that of a small, rural settlement that grew into a thriving commercial and residential township after the establishment of the railroad system through the fertile area. Although the railroad still bisects the middle of Public Square and trains pull through daily, no industrial resources are present within the district. In addition to the commercial and residential buildings, the district is composed of religious, educational, governmental and social buildings." ~ Living Spaces: The Gombach Group
