The Fernald Preserve Visitors Center commemorates the rich and varied history of the Fernald Preserve, Ohio, Site. The visitors center offers a series of exhibits focused on the Cold War uranium metals production industry, the subsequent environmental cleanup, and today's ongoing legacy management. The site's uranium production and environmental cleanup eras are placed within a broad historical perspective, acknowledging geologic history and the indigenous American Indians and Euro-American settlers who lived on the land.
Admission to the visitors center is free, and meeting spaces at the facility are available free of charge for noncommercial use by organized groups. The visitors center is a 10,000-square-foot, platinum-certified U.S. Green Building Council Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED-certified) facility.
