This city hall building serves the town of Lyons, a small Linn County community (population 1,161 as of 2010). The town was founded by James C. and Henry Lyons, two Irish brothers who settled here around 1880. Captain James Lyons was a retired military man having served with the Union Army in the Civil War and in numerous Indian Wars. The town officially incorporated in 1958. The town's major industries in the early years included timber and the railroad. Today, timber is still a key economic base.
