==History==
When it debuted in 1937, SR 576's routing occupied the portion of its existing alignment between its present southern terminus at SR 2 southwest of [[Bryan, Ohio|Bryan]] and its eastern junction with [[Ohio State Route 107|SR 107]] in [[Montpelier, Ohio|Montpelier]]. At that time, the current stretch of SR 576 between the western SR 107 junction and the eastern [[U.S. Route 20 (Ohio)|US 20]] intersection was included as a portion of [[U.S. Route 20A (Ohio)|US 20A]], while the stretch between US 20 and the Michigan state line was designated as SR 571.<ref name=ODOT1936_map>{{cite map |title=Official Ohio Highway Map |url=http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/TransSysDev/Innovation/prod_services/Documents/StateMaps/otm1936a.sid |format=MrSID |publisher=Ohio Department of Highways |date=1936 |cartography=ODOH |accessdate=2011-01-28}}</ref><ref name=ODOT1937_map>{{cite map |title=Official Ohio Highway Map |url=http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/TransSysDev/Innovation/prod_services/Documents/StateMaps/otm1937a.sid |format=MrSID |publisher=Ohio Department of Highways |date=1937 |cartography=ODOH |accessdate=2011-01-28}}</ref>
By 1957, SR 576 took on the shape that it has today, when it was extended northerly out of Montpelier concurrent with US 20A to US 20, then west along US 20 a short distance, and north over the former SR 571 to its present northern terminus at the Michigan state line.<ref name=ODOT1955_map>{{cite map |title=Ohio Highway Map |url=http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/TransSysDev/Innovation/prod_services/Documents/StateMaps/otm1955a.sid |format=MrSID |publisher=Ohio Department of Highways |date=1955 |cartography=ODOH |accessdate=2011-01-28}}</ref><ref name=ODOT1957_map>{{cite map |title=Ohio Highway Map |url=http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/TransSysDev/Innovation/prod_services/Documents/StateMaps/otm1957a.sid |format=MrSID |publisher=Ohio Department of Highways |date=1957 |cartography=ODOH |accessdate=2011-01-28}}</ref> The US 20A concurrency between Montpelier and US 20 was removed from SR 576 by 1964 when the alternate route to US 20 was re-routed to mainline US 20 via [[Ohio State Route 15|SR 15]] to the east.<ref name=ODOT1962_map>{{cite map |title=Official Ohio Highway Map |url=http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/TransSysDev/Innovation/prod_services/Documents/StateMaps/otm1962a.sid |format=MrSID |publisher=Ohio Department of Highways |date=1962 |cartography=ODOH |accessdate=2011-01-28}}</ref><ref name=ODOT1964_map>{{cite map |title=Official Ohio Highway Map |url=http://www.dot.state.oh.us/Divisions/TransSysDev/Innovation/prod_services/Documents/StateMaps/otm1964ar.sid |format=MrSID |publisher=Ohio Department of Highways |date=1964 |cartography=ODOH |accessdate=2011-01-28}}</ref>
