Monument Cell Phone Audio Tours

The Statehouse has introduced cell phone audio tours to enhance the visitor experience. Visitors can experience history by
learning about the people and places that the Ohio Statehouse monument collection pays tribute to. Visitors can explore the
10 acres of Statehouse grounds and dial in on their cell phone to specific predetermined phone numbers and listen to
descriptions about the monuments and sculpture.
The sculpture cell phone audio tour program is designed to inform and educate Statehouse visitors about the historic importance
of each monument and the individuals that they honor. The cell phone audio tour is FREE, except for air-time minutes according
to each visitor's cell phone calling plan.
The Ohio Statehouse Monument Cell Phone Audio Tour features seven monuments on Capitol Square. Signage at the base of each
monument highlights a tease question about each sculpture and a local phone number which visitors may call. A 30 to 90
second audio description depicts each monument; and answers the tease question. This is a unique and exciting way to learn
about Ohio's history.
The Monument Cell Phone Audio tour allows you to set the pace. You see all that you want to see – in the order you want to see
it. And it's really as simple as 1-2-3.
