Montello Theater
- John Sumwalt/For Agri-View
The Montello Theater is more than 160 years old. Built before 1878, the Opera House or Dodge’s Opera House as it's often referred to, was the hub of social activity, according to the theater's website. The top floor had balcony seats. Dances, visiting theater groups and medicine shows were the entertainment of the day. Later a three-piece orchestra or a piano player accompanied the silent movies.
