Lake Anna Park is a 21-acre (85,000 m²) park around a spring-fed, 10-acre (40,000 m²) lake, and is located in the center of downtown Barberton, Ohio.^[1]

Lake Anna was formed by natural geology, left after the last ice age. It would have long been a resource for varying cultures of indigenous peoples in the area. Ohio Columbus Barber, industrialist and founder of Barberton in 1894, named the lake after his only daughter Anna Laura Barber.
