Historic Edwardsville is a bustling hub of activity, recalling a rich background and looking ahead to a thriving future, as well. This region of Southwestern Illinois came under American colonial control after General George Rogers Clark captured British posts during the Revolutionary War. Relatively few settlers remained the region after this time, and Edwardsville took some time to become the thriving residential and commercial center it is today. Cultural offerings today keep the municipality in center stage of the region, including the Wildey Theatre, which was originally built as an opera house in 1909 by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Since that time, the Wildey Theatre has been extensively renovated as a center of the performing arts, entertainment and movies. In these ways, the history of Edwardsville stays alive and well in the present. If you want to enjoy these attractions in Edwardsville, be sure that your senses are optimal!
