Valmeyer History

The old village of Valmeyer was originally located in the American Bottoms. Several floods in 1910, 1943, and 1944 devastated the community. Levees were built and the village was protected from the subsequent floods until the Great Flood of 1993. Like many communities that were located in flood plains, Valmeyer was destroyed by the 1993 flood. The new village was relocated up on the bluffs which is about 400 feet higher than the old village.
