History Oldenburg was founded in the 1800's by a group of German Settlers. Incorporated in 1869, Oldenburg is called the "Village of Spires" because of its churches and religious educational institutions. The town proudly preserves its religious, cultural, and architectural heritage. The old stone and brick structures, clapboard houses, tin facades and cornices, bilingual street signs, and the combination of shops and residences attest to the Old World influence. The settlement rapidly took on a German flavor with the in-migration of German Catholics from Cincinnati.
Freudenfest The city is also very proud of its annual "Freudenfest" or "festival of fun" that is held each July in the town. It includes German food, beer, music, games, and homemade ice cream. There is also an annual 'lauf' held in the evening on the Saturday of the freudenfest. The winner the last 4 years has been Walker Yane, a 2007 graduate of Earlham College. In 2006, the festival set a new Freudenfest record for the amount of beer sold.
