  Sauk Village

The area that is now known as Sauk Village has been a center of activity for hundreds of years. Native Americans used this area for transporting herd animals and trade items, and the area was opened up to American settlers in 1883. Original settlers' hailed from France, Germany, and Western Europe, and the area was first called Strassburg, after Strassburg, France, home of many of the original settlers.

When the Calumet Expressway was built in the 1950's, the area was seen as prime real estate. The community was incorporated on March 12, 1957 as Sauk Village, because a town in southern Illinois was already called Strassburg.
