History

Niagara Falls was formed over 12,000 years ago at the end of the Ice Age, shaped by the powerful forces of melting glaciers carving the Niagara River and Escarpment. Early Indigenous peoples first witnessed the falls, and European explorers later documented its grandeur in the 17th century, sparking the area’s growth as a major tourist destination. The city itself grew from several smaller communities that merged in the early 1900s, developing hydroelectric power plants and manufacturing industries, and evolving into a renowned global attraction while maintaining a vibrant local community.
