Saugus was first settled by Europeans in 1629, during the main boom of colonization of New England. The settlers then founded the Saugus Iron works, which operated from 1646 to 1668, which was the first integrated Iron Works in North America. The original site of the iron works is now in the National Register of Historic Places.

What is now U.S. Highway 1 goes through Saugus, and was built in 1806, making it one of the first public roads in the U.S. With the advent of automobiles, this pre-existing road was widened, and during the early history of the automobile, Saugus was an important center for the early adopters of the technology.
