The history of Sandusky goes back to 1744, when the British established a trading and military outpost there called Fort Sandusky. The name Sandusky is said to be an anglicization of san too chee, an indigenous phrase meaning "cold water". A village was established here in 1816. Originally called Portland, it was renamed two years later to its present name.

In the early days Sandusky depended on the railroad for its growth. It was a center for paper making. Since then the city has reinvented itself as a regional tourist destination with its numerous theme parks and water parks.
