Proud of Our Roots (and Our Routes)

El Reno is located in the heart of Oklahoma, where Interstate 40, Route 66 and the Chisholm Trail all meet. We got our start in 1889 as the home to a historic fort and then boomed as the Rock Island Railroad moved into town. Our small town charm and easy access to big city amenities have contributed to a steady stream of new businesses and events. With extraordinary museums and historic sites, the only rail based trolley in the state, beautiful architecture and one-of-a-kind cultural events, there is plenty to discover in El Reno. Whether you’re passing through or staying a little longer- you can fill your visit to El Reno with historic attractions, retail therapy, live music, and family-friendly events. Come spend the day with us and you’ll understand why we’re so proud of our roots (and our routes).
