About Dresden

Set where Wakatomika Creek meets the Muskingum River, Dresden is a quiet, scenic village with deep Ohio roots. It is best known as the birthplace of Longaberger handcrafted baskets, though its history goes all the way back to early Shawnee settlements and Ohio's canal boom. Today, families are served by the Tri-Valley school district and get to enjoy a peaceful small-town pace that is still an easy drive from nearby Zanesville.
