| Description |
Woodland Indian tribes, French voyagers, fur trappers, Jesuit missionaries - at one time or another in the 17th century, these brave travelers came down the historic water highway called the Fox River. A natural stopping place for them was where the Fox emptied into the bay. This stopping place became Wisconsin's first settlement - the area that is now the City of Green Bay. Europeans were in the Green Bay Area in 1634, just 14 years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock.
The French called the bay "La Baie Verte" because of its greenish color, but first it was La Baie des Puants - the Bay of the Stinking Water.
