Watseka is a city in east-central Illinois and the county seat of Iroquois County, located about 15 miles west of the Illinois-Indiana state line on U.S. Route 24.
Watseka became the county seat in 1865 after a long battle with the rival town of Middleport, which no longer exists, and the city was incorporated that same year.
The name 'Watseka' derives from the Potawatomi name 'Watch-e-kee,' meaning 'Daughter of the Evening Star,' who was the wife of early eastern Illinois settler Gurdon Saltonstall Hubbard.
The Old Iroquois County Courthouse in Watseka was constructed in 1866, with additions built in 1881 and 1927; after the Iroquois County Historical Society organized in 1967 to save it, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
The Watseka Union Depot, built in 1906 to serve the two railroads that passed through town, was moved to a new location in 1989 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
