The remnants of that era, the sturdy brick architecture and the echoes of a bustling past, still resonate in its streets, a subtle reminder of the generations who built and shaped this place. Today, the local economy still leans on the rich agricultural heritage of the surrounding land, with fruit orchards and dairy farms contributing to the distinctive character of Orleans County. The iconic white spire of the Orleans County Courthouse, a landmark that has watched over Albion for generations, stands as a proud sentinel, a focal point for the enduring spirit of this community.
