Shawnee: Three Tribal Nations and a Potato Chip Legacy
Shawnee was founded in 1891 after the opening of the Pottawatomie and Shawnee reservations to non-Native settlement. The city serves as the headquarters of three tribal nations: the Absentee Shawnee, the Citizen Potawatomi, and the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma. The FireLake Casino complex operated by the Citizen Potawatomi Nation sits on tribal trust land on the western edge of the city.
Oklahoma Baptist University, founded in 1910, enrolls around 2,000 students on a campus of Georgian-style brick buildings along University Drive. The main entrance is marked by the 1928 Raley Chapel bell tower. St. Gregory's Abbey, a Benedictine monastery founded in 1876, maintains a working community at the edge of the city.
Shawnee's industrial base grew around the historic Santa Fe, Rock Island, and Frisco rail yards. Shawnee Milling Company, founded in 1906, still operates from its original downtown site. Shawnee Mission Medical Center and the Shawnee Regional Heritage Center anchor the current economy.
