What to Do in Elmhurst

First settled in the 1830s, Elmhurst was incorporated as a village in 1882 and reincorporated as a city in 1910. The town was founded on a treeless prairie and originally named Cottage Hill but was later renamed after residents beautified the town by planting numerous elm trees. The community’s location on a railway line and on a highway leading into Chicago has long made it a convenient place to live.
