Point Pleasant is a historic city situated at the confluence of the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers in Mason County, West Virginia. Founded in 1797, the city played a significant role in early American history, notably as the site of the 1774 Battle of Point Pleasant, a crucial conflict between Native Americans and colonial settlers. The city's cultural identity is closely tied to this historical event, which is commemorated at Tu-Endie-Wei State Park.
Point Pleasant is also known for its unique folklore, particularly the legend of the Mothman, a mysterious creature supposedly sighted in the area during the 1960s. This local legend has become an integral part of the city's cultural heritage, inspiring the Mothman Museum and annual festivals.
