A short history of Montverde

Montverde was the location of a Native American settlement and burial ground. The earliest record of American settlement is from 1865, and initially named "West Lake Apopka". The community's name derives from the Spanish, "Monte Verde", by a settler from Vermont (which also means "green mountain" and derives from the French, "Vert Mont") who remarked on its rolling green hills while arriving at the site by boat on Lake Apopka. The Town of Montverde was officially incorporated as a municipality on May 18, 1925.

The central feature of the town is Montverde Academy, a private preparatory school for primary and secondary students. The school was opened in 1912.
