The Walla Walla area was inhabited by various tribes of Native Americans when missionary couple Marcus and Narcissa Whitman established a mission there in 1836. They were killed by the Cayuse tribe which thought the missionaries were poisoning them. Whitman College was established in their memory.

The town of Walla Walla was incorporated in 1862. A gold rush caused it to grow rapidly, and at one time, it was even planned to be the state capital of Washington - the title eventually going to Olympia. Today Walla Walla continues to play a role as the agricultural center for the southeastern part of Washington.
