Washington County is located in the southeastern part of the state of Iowa. Established in 1839, it was named in honor of the first U.S. President, George Washington. Initially, a part of the Wisconsin Territory until Iowa gained statehood in 1846, the county has a rich history mainly related to agriculture and trade.

One of the earliest settlers in the area was Samuel C. Trowbridge, who founded the town of Washington in 1837. Serving as the county seat, the town of Washington played an essential role in the development of the county. The landscape of Washington County is characterized by fertile lands that have primarily supported agricultural activities throughout its history. Access to the Mississippi River through its bordering southern counties provided a trading path for the early inhabitants, contributing to its growth and economic development.

Fun Fact: Washington County is known for having the longest-running city park in the state of Iowa. It is called Central Park, and its establishment dates back to 1851, providing exceptional recreational opportunities for generations of residents and visitors.

Today, Washington County maintains a mix of small towns and rural areas, with agriculture still playing a significant role in the county's economy. The region is also renowned for its vibrant main streets, warm and welcoming communities, and a variety of historical sites and cultural events that celebrate its rich heritage.
