Clermont, Iowa has recently undergone a rejuvenation to make it one of Northern Iowa's premier day trip destinations. Walking down Mill Street is like walking into the past. Clermont has always rejected fast food restaurants and chain stores with their plastic signs and glowing neon in favor of the brick buildings and street lights that have been on Mill Street for more than 100 years. Go antiquing, visit our museum and take a walking tour to learn about Clermont’s Civil War past, take advantage of the natural beauty that surrounds Clermont (bike trails, camp grounds, hunting, fishing, and canoeing), or just enjoy a good meal at one of our restaurants. Clermont also hosts a Civil War re-enactment every summer. To learn more, click on the links below.

History of Clermont, IA



Spotlight

A Rich History

The township of Clermont, Iowa was established in 1850. During the second half of the 19th century, large brickyards in the Clermont area earned the town the nickname “Brick City.” These brickyards also led to the large number of brick buildings that still line the streets of Clermont today. Although Clermont would not be incorporated until 1875, the town produced four Civil War captains who were critical to the Union victory.

 

The Great Outdoors

Clermont is bordered on one side by the Turkey River and is surrounded by woods and rolling hills. Enjoy outdoor activities such as biking, fishing, camping, hunting and canoeing.
