Village of New Knoxville

101 South Main Street
419-753-2160

Nestled in southern Auglaize County, New Knoxville is located at the intersection of State Routes 29 & 219, and is just minutes from Interstate 75. These highways allow one to travel to/from Chicago, Illinois; Frankfort, Kentucky; Charleston, West Virginia; or Erie, Pennsylvania in less than 5 hours. Whether traveling by car or air, our community is easily accessible.  Dayton International Airport is within an hour drive, while PortColumbus International Airport, Toledo Express Airport, and Ft. Wayne International Airport can all be reached in less than 2 hours.

Just outside the village is The Auglaize County Neil Armstrong Airport which is an important part of our community. It is located adjacent to the Village of New Knoxville’s industrial park, and can accommodate all general aviation aircraft, and provide a link for travelers and goods coming into our community from around the world. The airport’s 5,650’ runway is suitable for all kinds of aircraft including corporate jets. The airport is named after Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, who grew up in nearby Wapakoneta, Ohio.

As in many small towns, our local school is the heart of the community, and one we take great pride in. New Knoxville Schools are rated “excellent” by the Ohio Department of Education, with attendance and graduation rates above 98%.  The community’s commitment to the school is reflected in its renovations and upkeep.
