Lapland is an unincorporated community in Scott Township, Montgomery County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.
Lapland was platted by William Davis in 1887.[2] The community was probably named after Lapland, in Scandinavia.[3] A post office was established at Lapland in 1885, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1899.[4]
