History
It is the home of the Bishop Hill State Historic Site, a park operated by the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency.
The village was founded in 1846 by Sweden immigrants affiliated with the Pietism movement, led by Erik Jansson. Many of the first 1000 colonists died from disease on the way to Bishop Hill (named for Eric Jansson's birthplace), while others became disillusioned and stayed in New York. In the next few years housing was upgraded from dugouts to brick living areas, and crops were planted on of land. By 1849, Bishop Hill had constructed a flour mill, two sawmills, a three story frame church, and various other buildings. After the first winter, life at Bishop Hill drastically improved.
