Langdon

Langdon is best known within Kansas for its position in Crawford County’s historic coal-mining belt. This small locality stands amid southeastern Kansas prairie and farmland, in a region shaped by the Cherokee-Crawford Coal Field, whose mines drove settlement and industry from the late 19th century. Nearby Pittsburg is home to Pittsburg State University, while the Miners Hall Museum in the former mining community of Franklin recalls the area’s industrial past. Langdon provides a quiet reference point for exploring the rural side of a region long defined by coal, railways and working communities.
