Richland
Carrousel Park opened in 1991 as the first new, hand- carved carrousel
to be built and operated in the United States since the 1930's.
The Carrousel figures were carved in the style of G.A. Dentzel, one of
the most revered carvers of the early 1900's. All 52 figures were
designed, carved and painted by Carrousel Works in Mansfield, Ohio.
Carrousel Works also restored the antique rounding boards, mirrors and
mural frames. There are 30 horses and 22 menagerie figures, including
4 bears, 4 ostriches, 4 cats, 4 rabbits, a goat, giraffe, lion, tiger,
zebra and a mythical hippocampus. A Stinson Band Organ provides
rousing music for carrousel riders. The scenery panels atop the
carrousel depict past and present attractions in Mansfield.
Richland Carrousel
Park, which is in a heated pavilion, is open 7 days a week and is handicapped
accessible. Located in the Historic Carrousel District, there are
many unique shops & restaurants. For more information, visit

Some
special activities at the Carrousel include Birthday Parties and Private
Rentals. Motorcoaches and School groups are always welcome.
