Another Fun Santa Clara Fun Fact
Pioneers from Switzerland turned the land on the banks of the Santa Clara river into a small village. Many times the river overran it’s banks. In 2005 a flood washed away houses and put the whole village under water! Since then, Historical restoration through out the village have included: Historical plaques, street-scape, town hall rebuilt to resemble the old school, historic district designation, water feature with rescuer sculpture.
Come visit us! The Santa Clara historical museum is in the basement of town hall.
