Welcome to Buffalo

The winters may be long and cold, but Buffalo stays warm with a vibrant creative community and strong local pride. Settled by the French in 1758, the city is believed to derive its name from beau fleuve (beautiful river).

One of its nicknames – Queen City – was because it was the largest city along the Great Lakes.
