A small trading post was established at this location in 1634 by French-Canadian explorer Jean Nicolet. In 1671 a Jesuit Mission was set up here; at the time the settlement was known as La Baye. A fort was added in 1717. The town was incorporated in 1754. The town passed to British control in 1761. As British settlers in the area came to outnumber the French, the name "Green Bay" became the more common name for the town. In 1783 the town became part of the United States of America.
