The story

from WikipediaRead it all ↗

The city of Fulda was founded in 1881 along the Milwaukee Road primarily by German settlers, though also by Scandinavians and Irish. It was named for Fulda in Hessen, Germany. Fulda is still predominantly an agricultural community.

Although the rail line was discontinued in 1980, the two-story train depot, along with a section of track, has been preserved and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The lower level of the depot is currently used as an antiques museum and store. The other building in the city on the National Register is the former Citizens State Bank.
