The Sardis Town Pump has been in continuous operation since the nineteenth century and has played an important role in the daily life of Sardis residents. The well was originally operated with a hand pump but was later converted to electricity. It is the drinking choice for many in the community and throughout Monroe County.
It is the last of four known public wells that have served the village of Sardis.

The above posted coordinates should lead you near an Ohio Historical Society marker as well as the Sardis Town Pump.

Monroe County, Ohio has relied upon valuable groundwater located on the eastern side of the county for many years. The source of the famous town well at Sardis is an aquifer.
