Carillon Historical Park is a 65-acre (26 ha) park and museum in Dayton, Ohio, which contains historic buildings and exhibits concerning the history of technology, as well as the history of Dayton and its residents from 1796 to present. As a part of the University of Dayton, the historical elements of the park were the brainchild of Colonel Edward Deeds. The park contains sections for settlement, transportation, invention, and industry, as well as a small assortment of attractions. In 2005, Carillon Historical Park merged with the Montgomery County Historical Society to form Dayton History.
