A new mini-golf experience is coming to downtown Cincinnati, along the banks of the Ohio River.

Putt House – Legends at Freedom Park is opening next Friday, Nov. 20, bringing 19 professionally designed holes to The Banks, with each dedicated to a Cincinnati legend.

The Cincinnati Park Board approved a three-year lease in July for the course, which was developed in collaboration with the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center. Information about each represented individual will be displayed at the corresponding hole.

Holes were inspired by:

Additional information about each of the represented legends can be found on the Putt House website.

The course received private funding from The Filson. As part of the collaboration, the owner of The Filson, Jeffrey R. Anderson Real Estate, has committed to making an annual donation to the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center.

Located next door, golfers can enjoy food and drinks from The Filson. Putt House is designed for individual outings as well as family gatherings, birthday parties or other group events.

The course will be open from 11 a.m. until 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday, 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Sunday.
