Small in size and population but big in history and culture
Aurora is quite small. This quaint city is less than half a square mile in size and is home to less than 1,300 residents. But that’s not what stands out most about Aurora. Founded in 1856, the little community packs quite a historic punch. It’s also home to the state of Oregon’s first registered National Historic District. It’s also one of the top 10 antiquing destinations in the west.

Aurora, Oregon, is a charming small town nestled in the heart of the Willamette Valley, celebrated for its rich history and vibrant antique scene.
Founded in 1856, German immigrants descended upon a small parcel of land hoping to build a Christian communal society. Aurora was named after one of those settlers daughters. In earlier times, the Aurora Colony was known mostly for it’s crafts, music and cuisine.
Besides boasting an immersive history, Aurora is home to many modern-day favorites. Wineries, galleries, championship golf courses, and tasting rooms cater to both locals and tourists. What Aurora lacks in size, it makes up for in heart and attraction.
If you were to spend an afternoon in Aurora, you’d likely find yourself exploring one of the many antique stores. Today there’s more than 20 stores that work with nearly 300 dealers to source one-of-a-kind pieces.
The Aurora Mills Architectural Salvage is the perfect place to find garden décor and architectural relics. It was originally constructed as a warehouse in 1890, but serves as a haven for guests interested in antiquing.
Across the street, you’ll see the Aurora Depot. This former railroad depot has been repurposed as an antique lamp store. It’s a great place to look for that accent light fixture piece you’ve been missing.
While the food in Aurora isn’t gourmet by any stretch, it’s still delicious. The quaint cafes of Aurora cater to travelers looking for something tasty to nibble on. The White Rabbit Bakery features fabulous gluten-free cinnamon rolls and a vegan chai snickerdoodle cupcake that’s to die for.
The Pheasant Run Winery offers some of the best wine in the region, and like the rest of Aurora, it’s full of history as well. Constructed in 1905, the tasting room used to be the Historic Aurora Bank. It was even featured in the film ‘Bandits.’
Made in traditional European style, the vintages at Aurora Colony Vineyards are worth the trip alone. Here you can sip wine while noshing on seasonal pizzas, cheesy artichoke dips, and perfectly spiced beef bites. And if you happen to make it there on a Friday night, you’ll be treated to a local live band.
