History

Solon has an interesting past that it continues to build on, and you can read all about it on the city's official website. One thing that many people may want to make note of, though, is its name. The city was given the moniker in honor of Lorenzo Solon Bull, who was the son of one of its first settlers. However, it's believed the name was specifically chosen because of the connection to the famous ancient Greek lawmaker of the same name whose reforms in the 6th and 7th centuries B.C. helped shape Athens into the power it became soon after his death. He's so well thought of that he's become known to history as the "Father of Democracy," making the city's name an apt one.
