History
The first settlement at Loup City was made in the mid 1860s. Loup City was platted in 1864, and designated county seat. Loup City was named after the Loup River. During the Great Depression, Loup City was the site of a clash between leftist activists, influenced by Mother Bloor, who clashed with area residents in June 1934 following efforts by Communists to organize the workers of a poultry processing plant. The completion of Sherman Reservoir in 1963 added tourism to the area's economic base.
