About Louisville, Ohio

Louisville is a city of 9,521 people in Stark County, on the east branch of Nimishillen Creek about 7 miles northeast of Canton. Henry Lautzenheiser, a German, and Frederick Fainot, a French Huguenot, settled the town on October 8, 1834, and named it Lewisville for Lautzenheiser's son Lewis. When Sam Petree opened the post office in 1837, officials found that Ohio already had a town called Lewisville, so the name was respelled Louisville.

In its early years Louisville competed for growth with Harrisburg, a stagecoach stop in the same township. The creek helped Louisville, but the turning point came in 1852, when the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway came through town while Harrisburg still had to ship its wheat by barge. Louisville pulled ahead, became a village on April 1, 1872, with George Violand as its first mayor, and voted to become a city in 1960.

  • The Constitution TownOn September 17, 1952, Olga T. Weber gathered Louisville residents to honor the day in 1787 when the U.S. Constitution was finished. Her lobbying worked: Governor Frank Lausche made September 17 Constitution Day in Ohio in 1953, and President Eisenhower proclaimed Constitution Week in 1955. On April 15, 1957, the City Council named Louisville "The Constitution Town," and the state marker calls its yearly celebration the longest running Constitution Day in the nation.
  • St. Louis CollegeSt. Louis Church on North Chapel Street was finished in 1870 and dedicated in 1878, and it joined the National Register in 1979. Across the street, the Reverend Louis Hoffer opened St. Louis College in 1866. It closed in 1873 for lack of money and because students struggled to get there. The building later served as an orphanage until 1925 and a home for the elderly from 1927, and it was torn down in 1975.
  • Twenty saloons at onceIn the late 19th century Louisville's businesses included a plow works, a brewery, tanneries, flour mills, a brickyard, a shoe factory, a basket factory and two hotels. At one point the town also had twenty saloons, which gave it a rough name. Two businesses from that era, Star Mill and the Town Tavern, are still open, and The Louisville Herald has been published since 1887.
  • Street lights for Christmas 1884Telephone toll lines reached Louisville in the early 1880s, and for Christmas 1884 the town lit its first public street lights, twelve oil lamps downtown. A public water system followed in 1894 and sewers in 1910. In 1914 Main Street became the first road in town to be fully paved.
