The city was first founded as a fort by the French in 1717, well before the territory was controlled by the United States, and the fort became a center for trade and commerce between mountain men, trappers, traders, and Native Americans. The town itself was first laid out in 1825, and the city (and fort) was renamed after the Revolutionary War hero General Lafayette, who helped the Americans during the Revolution. The city continues to be a center for commerce to this day, with a dense industrial center.
Like most cities in the Midwest, Lafayette has a humid continental climate, which gives the city four distinct seasons.
