Fulton

Fulton combines the working character of a Mississippi River town with a strong Dutch-American identity, reflecting its position on Illinois’s western border opposite Iowa. The broad Mississippi shapes the city’s riverfront setting and links Fulton to Clinton on the far bank, while the surrounding area belongs to the agricultural landscape of northwestern Illinois. De Immigrant, a working Dutch windmill brought from the Netherlands and rebuilt in Fulton, is the city’s defining landmark. Its presence is reinforced by Dutch Days, an annual celebration of local heritage. The Windmill Cultural Center provides context for the community’s Dutch roots and the mill’s construction.
