Step back in time at the Hower House, a 28-room Victorian Mansion built in 1871 by John Henry Hower. This Akron Industrialist’s mansion remained well preserved and eventually was declared a National Historic Landmark. Take a public or private tour to see the collection of Victorian-era treasures and furnishings that have been collected over the decades.

Lace up your sneakers, slip on your rollerblades or pump up your bike tires and head over to the Bike & Hike Trail, one of the first “rails to trails” projects in the country.
