About Mansfield

Mansfield is a north-central Ohio city on the Mohican River and the county seat of Richland County. Founded in 1808, it grew into a manufacturing and regional-service city, but many visitors know it for the old Ohio State Reformatory, a massive historic prison later made famous by film tourism. The Richland County Fair still brings a classic county-seat rhythm to the city, while Mansfield's location between Columbus and Cleveland keeps it tied to several parts of Ohio at once.
