Graysville is a city in northwestern Jefferson County, Alabama, United States, located north of Adamsville.

The first meeting of the town council took place at the old school house on January 16, 1946.

Later that year, the original city council established the Graysville Water Works system.

During the 1950s and 1960s, the local coal mines and steel mills attracted families from all over Alabama.

As a result of this growth, Graysville established the city's first series of home developments and subdivisions.

During the 1980s and 1990s, Graysville expanded its city limits by annexing multiple acres in what was then unincorporated in Jefferson County.
