Lake Viking is located near Gallatin, MO.

Gallatin was founded in 1837 and named for Albert Gallatin,[7][8] America’s longest-serving Secretary of the Treasury (1801–1814). Gallatin was incorporated in 1856.

The Gallatin Election Day Battle took place on 6 August 1838. About 200 people attempted to forcibly prevent Latter-day Saints (also known as Mormons) from voting in the newly created county‘s first election. In October 1838, David W. Patten led Mormon troops in the Daviess County expedition in which the Mormons burned and looted much of Gallatin, Millport and Grindstone Fork, consecrating the stolen goods to the bishop’s storehouse.[10] The skirmishes were part of the 1838 Mormon War. Gallatin is important in the Latter-day Saint religion; nearby is a place known to its members as Adam-ondi-Ahman. They believe it to be the site where Adam and Eve lived after they had been expelled from the Garden of Eden.[11]

In 1892, Grand River College moved from Edinburg, Missouri to Gallatin, where it operated for a period under the auspices of William Jewell College before it closed permanently in 1910 after a fire.

The Daviess County Rotary Jail and Sheriff’s Residence, the A. Taylor Ray House and the Daviess County Courthouse are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
