Mt. Angel, Oregon

Welcome to Mt. Angel

Welcome to Mt. Angel, Oregon, a wonderful place to visit! Nestled between farmland and foothills, Mt. Angel is located 18 miles northeast of Salem on Highway 214. This little town, founded in the late 1800s by German settlers, has an Old World flavor which is heightened by the many Bavarian style storefronts and the beautiful Benedictine Abbey. Mt. Angel celebrates their German heritage each year during the Oktoberfest, one of Oregon's longest festivals. More than 300,000 people attend the four-day festival, which has been held in Mt. Angel for more than 40 years. Oktoberfest starts on the second Thursday after Labor Day and continues through Sunday.

On behalf of the Mt. Angel Chamber of Commerce, we would like to sincerely thank Orville Roth and Roth’s Fresh Markets for their very generous donation to Mt. Angel’s 4th of July Fireworks.

Mt. Angel Chamber’s 4th of July Fireworks is a great community tradition enjoyed by Mt. Angel and Silverton residents.  This year, with the increase in the price of the fireworks, we fell short of the amount we needed to fund the fireworks and Orville Roth came forward to support this program that is free to the community. 

A great big “Green Bow Tie” thank you to Orville Roth for his tremendous community support. 

Dear Chamber Members:  Below is information about the Benedictine Sisters Iris sale. Beautiful flowers for a great organization!  And don't forget to pick up a jar of their famous Monastery Mustard!
