Founded in 1826 as a center for lead mining, Galena's restored homes and commercial buildings have such a rich history that 85% of them are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. In addition to being a historic mining center, the town was home to Ulysses S. Grant in 1860 when he arrived to work in his father's leather goods store. After the Civil War, Grant returned to Galena and was presented with a handsome home that he visited frequently during his presidency. The Grant Home is now a state historic site.

From antiques and art to fashion and furniture, words like original and eclectic come to mind. No matter what you're shopping for during your stay in Galena, you'll find friendly owners and shopkeepers who love chatting up visitors just as much as they do making sales.
