Rushing waters brought Native American tribes to the Fort Wayne region thousands of years ago, followed much later by European settlers. This area lies at the point where the St. Mary's, St. Joseph and Maumee rivers converge, and the waterways powered economic growth in the area's early development. Major companies settled here, spawning inventions such as the washing machine, the refrigerator, and the first garbage disposal originally called the "Electric Pig." Today, the rivers and the greenways and parks that surround them provide scenic beauty, an abundance of recreational opportunities, and a sense of history to the city. Historic attractions include Johnny Appleseed Park, where the local folk hero was buried, and the renowned Lincoln Museum, which brings the great president's legacy to life. Add great restaurants, a wealth of arts offerings, a full special events calendar and a helping of Hoosier hospitality, and you have a thriving city that showcases the depth and diversity of American life.

In 1812, Fort Wayne was considered a barbaric frontier town. Populated be many wild and woolly characters.
