Canton

Canton occupies gently rolling terrain in northeastern Ohio's Stark County. Nimishillen Creek runs through the city, while the surrounding landscape belongs to the Tuscarawas River watershed. Canton holds a central place in American football history: the American Professional Football Association, later renamed the NFL, was founded here in 1920. The Pro Football Hall of Fame preserves that legacy with exhibits, ceremonies and its annual enshrinement week. Another major civic landmark is the McKinley National Memorial, where President William McKinley is buried. Downtown's historic core and cultural institutions give the city a distinct regional identity. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Canton and Stark County.
