The Hayner House was once located in Warren County, Ohio, along the Little Miami River near South Lebanon. In 1862, John Hayner purchased the property the house sat upon along with several other local farms. Hayner made his living by raising and drying corn, later by canning it. In partnership with several others, the business flourished. When there was no longer a demand for dried corn he converted his drying barn to a cannery.

The Hayner House is an example of Greek Revival Architecture and features fluted columns with Ionic capitals, bilateral wings, and seven fireplaces on the first floor and two in the basement. The house was originally built around 1852. It eventually began to deteriorate, was dismantled and put into storage, and in 1973 was rebuilt at Heritage Village. Hayner House currently operates as Heritage Village Museum and Education Center’s exhibit, collections, and office space.
