Peebles

Greater Cincinnati Area

The village of Peebles lies in the northeastern part of the county. At 1.2 square miles with a population of just 1,800, Peebles is relatively small giving residents a change to know just about everyone in town. Named after area businessman John Peebles, the town embraces the nearby Amish community known for their furniture and bakery businesses. Although a small village, Peebles hosts a world-renowned site for jet engine testing at the six thousand acre General Electric Peebles Test Operation site. Peebles is perhaps best known for its proximity to Serpent Mound-the largest and finest serpent effigy in the United States. A museum and park at the site attracts historians and tourists from around the world.
