In 1883, four days after Lincoln County was created, territorial legislators cut out of it another county, and named it for Stephen A. Douglas. This town is in the bottom of a small coulee, southeast of Waterville.

Points of Interest
St. Paul’s Lutheran Church
Although the population of Douglas has dwindled since its heyday in the late 1800s, the Lutheran Church still stands as a reminder of the community’s pioneer past. The building is an exceptionally solid and well-crafted structure, and its physical integrity fortunately has been well-preserved. St. Paul’s is an excellent example of early 20th century German craftsmanship in a remote eastern Washington setting.
