History

The village of East Dundee was incorporated in 1871, four years after West Dundee. A historic district along the Fox River and stores on Main Street constitute the commercial part of East Dundee.

The train depot was rebuilt in 1984 as a tourist center.[9] Santa's Village theme park operated from 1959 to 2006.[10] It reopened in 2011 under new ownership as Santa's Village AZoosment Park.
