A must-do Stark County museum, the McKinley Presidential Library & Museum, presents a combination of presidential history, local history, and hands-on fun. Step back in time as you walk through the Street of Shops, a life-size replica historic town complete with a blacksmith shop, dentist's office, and even a real fire pole to slide down in the fire station. In Discover World, the hands-on interactive science center, encounter an authentic mastodon skeleton that was discovered during an excavation for an apartment building in Canton, among other activities like Ecology Island and Fascination Station. Be greeted by President McKinley and his wife in the McKinley Gallery where the largest collection of McKinley artifacts chronicles the life and career of our 25th president, and walk the 108 steps to the top of the McKinley Presidential Monument to pay homage at McKinley’s final resting place.
No trip to Canton is complete without a visit to the Pro Football Hall of Fame! A truly exhilarating museum and exhibition center, the Pro Football Hall of Fame is the ultimate destination for fans and families.
