How is this achieved, I have everything mapped from / to the dispatcher Servlet and the css is in the webapp folder. when clicking on the css link href in the source I get a tomcat error.
Do I need to create a @RequestMapping for css?

Css are served without the need of dispatcher (unless you configure it to serve css). Just put them in some folder in your webapp dir and reference them as /YourAppContext/path-to-your-css in your pages.
For example in typical (non-maven) webapp it’s inside WebContent/css
Assuming your app’s context name is MyApp and you want to reference WebContent/css/main.css
you should put something like this in jsp:
or uglier using
as your css url
