Sylvania sits in northwestern Lucas County, directly adjacent to Toledo. The community was settled in 1833 by Judge William Wilson of Connecticut and platted on land near the Michigan border. The name Sylvania means woodland and reflected the oak and hickory forests that covered the area at the time of European settlement. The city was the site of the Battle of Phillips Corners in 1835, a minor skirmish during the Toledo War between Ohio and Michigan.
Sylvania has grown as an upscale suburb of Toledo through the twentieth century, with housing development filling in formerly agricultural land. The Sylvania City Schools district operates two comprehensive high schools, Southview and Northview, which compete in the Northern Lakes League. Olander Park, one of the larger community parks in the Toledo metro area, surrounds a 25-acre lake and offers fishing, walking trails, and seasonal swimming.
The Toledo Zoo operates a satellite facility called Wild Toledo in Sylvania, focusing on native Ohio wildlife. Lourdes University, a private Catholic institution founded in 1958, maintains its campus on a former Franciscan Sisters property in Sylvania. The university enrolls about 1,800 students and offers undergraduate and graduate programs.
