Gallipolis

Gallipolis is a small city in Ohio, located along the Ohio River. It was founded in the late 1700s by French expatriates fleeing the French Revolution, which is why its name means "City of the French" in Greek. The city has a rich history rooted in French culture and early American settlement. Today, Gallipolis features scenic river views, historic architecture, and a welcoming community. It serves as a regional hub for tourism, local arts, and outdoor activities like boating and fishing, maintaining a blend of historical charm and natural beauty.
