Sabula History
According to legend, in 1835 Isaac Dorman founded Sabula, Iowa after floating on a log from the Illinois side of the Mississippi River. However, the town wasn’t officially an island until the 1930s when the Army Corps of Engineers flooded the area to create the systems of locks and dams that are currently in place. From the 1930s on, Sabula, Iowa was known as the “Island City.” The town’s actual name comes from French origin for sand because of the town’s sand-like soil.
Sabula Community
There are many events that take place at Heritage Canyon, including the popular Dutch Days. Taking place in May, Dutch Days celebrates the importance of Dutch culture in the city of Fulton. Other events include the Christmas Walk, Beggar’s Night and the Fall Festival.
