Stepping Back in Time

Time travel may not be possible, but tours around Ohio offer opportunities to step back in time; including the Ohio Village, that gives a glimpse of 19th century life in a small town; and the Ohio State Reformatory, also known as the Mansfield Reformatory, which operated as a prison until 1990 and is now a tourist hot spot.
In this video we explore:
Ohio VIllage: A Living History

Mansfield Reformatory
The Ohio State Reformatory, also known as the Mansfield Reformatory, is a historic prison located in Mansfield, Ohio. It was built between 1886 and 1910 and remained in operation until 1990, when a United States Federal Court ruling ordered the facility to be closed. Architectural historian Jeff Darbee takes a tour of the facility to learn more about its history, including stories about paranormal activity.
