Welcome to Galesburg!

Welcome to Galesburg!A warm welcome awaits visitors to Galesburg, the Midwest’s hidden jewel! A city tied to Illinois by rails with one of the largest railroad yards in the United States--this railroad city has much to experience from unique shopping, antiques, arts, museums, walking tours, annual events and much more. Our beautiful Orpheum Theatre, built in the vaudeville days of early 1900s, offers many theatrical experiences. Galesburg’s overnight accommodations offer true convenience to out-of-town guests, and our one-of-a-kind and interesting restaurants await the opportunity to have you sample their food.
