History
The area where St. Paris now stands was originally inhabited by Native Americans. The first white settlers arrived in 1797 and the village was founded in 1831 by David Huffman, who originally named it New Paris, after the French capital city of Paris. Upon learning that another town in Ohio already had that name, he changed the name to St. Paris. St. Paris was incorporated as a village in 1858.
One of the houses in the village, known as the “Monitor House”, has been declared a historic site and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
