121 E High St
Potosi, MO 63664

The City of Potosi, located in Missouri, has a rich history that dates back to its founding in 1763 by French soldier Francis Azor, known as The Breton. The area's mineral wealth, particularly lead ore, attracted settlers and led to the establishment of mining camps, laying the groundwork for Potosi's growth as an industrial hub.

Incorporated as a single community in 1826, Potosi grew from its origins in mining to become the county seat and developed essential infrastructure under the guidance of early industrialists. Today, the city offers various services and community-focused initiatives, reflecting its commitment to revitalization and progress.
