Mantua Review Mantua stands as a classic example of small-town Ohio, tracing its origins to the late 1700s when settlers first arrived in the Connecticut Western Reserve. Its incorporation in 1898 capped decades of growth centered on the bustling village green, which once hosted essential trades and gatherings. The historical core still features striking 19th-century buildings and a sense of New England heritage.



As a former stop on the Cleveland and Mahoning Valley Railroad, Mantua thrived as a commercial hub while retaining an intimate, community feel. Landmarks like the Mantua Center Green and the oldest Disciples of Christ Church in Ohio reflect a deep respect for tradition and local history.
