Barberton
Known as the "Magic City," Barberton offers visitors a glimpse into a world where community pride thrives, and adventure awaits. O.C. Barber founded the city in 1890 as the location of his match factory (Diamond Match Company). Barberton earned the nickname when it entered a boom period of development in the late 1890s and both the city and population grew rapidly.
Enjoy some famous Barberton chicken at Village Inn Chicken or Belgrade Gardens, a local delicacy with its savory spices and crispy perfection. Take a leisurely stroll through Lake Anna Park, a 21-acre park in the heart of the city where tranquil waters mirror the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Barberton invites you to embrace the magic of this charming city and create lasting memories.
