About Knoxville

Located just southeast of Galesburg in west-central Illinois, Knoxville offers quiet small-town living with deep historic roots. At the center of town, the historic public square is framed by 19th-century landmarks, including the Old Knox County Courthouse and an original 1832 log cabin. Life here is relaxed and neighborly, with community events centered around the Knox County Fairgrounds just down the road. Quick access to Interstate 74 and Route 150 makes everyday commuting easy, putting regional shopping, dining, and medical care just a ten-minute drive away.
