2011 Map of Silverton

About this map

Silverton and Mount Angel anchor this Willamette Valley landscape, defined by a dense network of drainage canals and small agricultural reservoirs. The complex hydrology of the Pudding River and its many tributaries, including Zollner Creek and Abiqua Creek, is managed through engineered features like Walker Ditch and the Schiedler Reservoir. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, marked by numerous small family and parish burial grounds such as the Essen Family Cemetery and the Saint Paul Catholic Cemetery. Cultural and historic landmarks are prominent, including the Gallon House Bridge over Abiqua Creek and the Mount Angel Abbey Cemetery overlooking the town. The presence of the Bethany Pioneer Cemetery and Belle Passi School highlights the early settlement history that persists alongside contemporary agricultural operations and the Evergreen Golf Course.
