 History of Sebring

     Known as “The City on the Circle,” Sebring, Florida extends the same warm welcome it has since it was founded in 1911 by George Sebring. This pioneer conceived a unique circular plan as a focal point for this entire lakeside community. His idea was that all roads should lead to and from the center of the community, and despite many modern highway improvements since, it remains today. The community experienced a boom era in the 1920’s as a result of its founder’s plans.

      Investors, railroads, real estate entrepreneurs, northern bankers and others were intrigued by the layout of this community and saw it as a potential economic bonanza. The development of cattle ranches and citrus groves contributed to the creation of new empires, all complemented by connections to other cities throughout the nation by Seaboard Air Line Railroad’s Orange Blossom Special.

     By the mid-twenties the population had grown nearly fourfold. The "City on the Circle" had developed into a business Mecca and the demand for housing outstripped developers' ability to construct. Biltmore interests financed the $30 million dollar development of Harder Hall, a major resort complex complete with its own golf course and home sites.

     Sebring is the home of the famous Sebring International Raceway created on a former airbase, first used in 1950. It hosted the 1959 Formula One United States Grand Prix, but is currently best known as the host of the 12 Hours of Sebring, an annually held American Le Mans Series race. Nearby Highlands Hammock State Park is a popular attraction.
