Welcome to Altamont, Illinois! We are your typical small Midwestern town. You can find us half-way between St. Louis and Terre Haute, just off Interstate 70. Hope this site will encourage you to stop and visit if you've never been here, and if you have, I hope I renew some good memories!

The Halloween Season Is Here!
We had a beautiful day for the Halloween Parade! This year's parade featured a half-dozen area Bands, which I like to see. The kids in costumes joined in on Main Street for the judging. Maybe it was the wonderful weather, but there was a good crowd gathered along the route.
