Hannibal, Historical river city in Missouri, United States.
Hannibal stretches along the Mississippi River, encompassing sections of both Marion and Ralls counties at an elevation of 153 meters above sea level.
The city, established in 1819 by Moses Bates and incorporated in 1845, developed into Missouri's third-largest settlement by 1846 through river trade and railroads.
The Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum preserves the residence where Samuel Clemens lived during his formative years, influencing his literary masterworks.
Interstate 72 and US Route 61 connect the city to major transportation networks, while the local airport serves private and commercial aviation needs.
The Mark Twain Memorial Lighthouse, constructed in 1933, stands as a ceremonial beacon that multiple United States Presidents have illuminated during special occasions.
