Mansfield is a north-central Ohio city with a manufacturing history in steel, appliances and machinery, and today its economy rests on healthcare, advanced manufacturing, education and logistics. The city is best known to visitors for the Ohio State Reformatory, the castle-like former prison where The Shawshank Redemption was filmed, and for the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in nearby Lexington, which hosts IndyCar, IMSA sports car and motorcycle racing. Mansfield Lahm Airport is also home to an Ohio Air National Guard airlift wing.
Mansfield sits roughly halfway between Columbus and Cleveland, an hour or more from either city’s main airport, so flying private saves time for race teams, sponsors and spectators on Mid-Ohio weekends as well as business travelers visiting local plants. The airport is only a few miles north of downtown. Beyond racing, visitors come for Kingwood Center Gardens, the restored downtown carousel, Malabar Farm State Park, where Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall were married, and the forests, canoe liveries and covered bridges of Mohican State Park to the south. In winter, Snow Trails offers skiing just south of town.

Things to do in Mansfield
When to go. Spring through fall is the best time to visit Mansfield. The Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course holds its biggest race weekends from late spring through summer, including IndyCar, so book early. Summer is ideal for canoeing in Mohican country, and fall brings brilliant color to the area’s forests and covered bridges. Winters are cold and snowy, a good time for skiing at Snow Trails.
