Andrew Johnson became the first President of the United States to be impeached by the United States House of Representatives on February 24, 1868. He is later acquitted in the Senate on May 16, 1868. Per Wikipedia:
The impeachment and subsequent trial gained a historical reputation as an act of political expedience, rather than necessity, based on Johnson’s defiance of an unconstitutional piece of legislation and with little regard for the will of the public (which, despite the unpopularity of Johnson, opposed the impeachment). Until the impeachment of Bill Clinton 131 years later (which also ended in an acquittal), it was the only impeachment trial of a President in the history of the United States.
That was before the election and attempted impeachment of Donald Trump, 45th President. He was acquitted both times.
