Since approximately 80% of Galena is within the National Register Historic District there is a good probability that your property is within the Historic District. The boundaries of the district are the “original city” as recorded on March 28, 1838 and all subdivisions added to the city prior to December 31, 1859. On October 18, 1969 the United States Department of the Interior listed our Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places.
