HISTORY In 1838, Vandalia was nothing more than the crossing point of two dirt trails near a spot we now know as the intersection of National Road (Route 40) and the Dixie Highway. Benjamin Wilhelm was the first to settle here, building his home and a small general store that would serve travelers as they journeyed westward. The busy path attracted more entrepreneurs and soon a small settlement began to take shape. In 1848, incorporation papers were filed to establish the Village of Vandalia. VANDALIA TODAY Today, that confluence of two dirt roads is a modern city with amenities usually reserved for much larger communities. A mature community that focuses on planned economic development, the City relies heavily on careful planning to facilitate responsible and meaningful growth.
