History of Santa's House
​​​Dottie Ziess Young and Diane Zeiss Nevitt remember when their father Richard Zeiss built the first Santa House on the Courthouse Square in the 1960's. It was a cute little house that came apart for storage.​
​
In the late 1970's a second Santa house was built by Noblesville resident Don Roberts. ​
The Hamilton County Historical Society and the staff from Hamilton County Building and Grounds; maintain and operate the Santa House each year.
