The Old State Bank, built in 1833, is the oldest bank in the state. The pre-Greek Revival structure served as a hospital during the Civil War and was one of only four buildings in Decatur that survived the war. An unusual feature of the bank is its second floor apartment for the head cashier. The bank contains historical displays depicting life in the 1830s.
