Elegant, Romantic, Unique - Welcome to Promont!
If you’re looking for a unique and intimate venue for your upcoming event you’ve come to the right place! Promont is the perfect, budget-friendly location for intimate weddings, bridal or baby showers, birthday parties, club or board meetings, family reunions, company picnics, and more! Promont can accommodate 35-150 persons depending upon the event and the setting (indoor only, outdoor only, or indoor/outdoor).
Promont was built between 1865-1867 by William Megrue in the Victorian Italianate style of architecture. A technological marvel of its time, upon completion the house featured gas lighting, call bells in every room, central heat from a coal-fired furnace, and a gravity-flow water system from the “catch” basin on the top floor. Promont’s most distinguishing features, however, are the 5-story tower with observation room and the wide verandah at the rear of the house.
‘Promont’, meaning “promontory”, or, a “prominent hill”, received its name from the father-in-law of its most famous resident, John M. Pattison, 43rd Governor of Ohio. He and his family resided in the house from 1879 until his death in 1906. During his residency the property was 56-acres, the driveway to the home connected Rt 50 to Rt 28, and the grounds held a separate carriage house.
In November, 1980 Promont was placed on the National Register of Historic Places by its last private resident James Kirgan. When Mr. Kirgan passed in 1983, he bequeathed the house, along with a few acres of grounds, to the Greater Milford Area Historical Society. GMAHS has restored the house to the period of Governor Pattison’s residence - 1879-1906. You’ll find high ceilings, intricate mouldings, and Victorian elegance and opulence throughout.
