About Massillon

Massillon is a Stark County city on the Tuscarawas River, with its town plat laid out along the river's east bank. Its early story includes the settlement of Kendal, founded in 1812 by Quaker Thomas Rotch, and the Massillon Museum keeps local history visible downtown. Massillon is also famous in Ohio for high school football, especially the Massillon Tigers tradition. The city feels like an old industrial and river town with strong civic memory, sports pride, and a distinct place in the Canton area.
