1998 Map of Teutopolis

About this map

Teutopolis anchors the southern portion of this landscape, where the grid of the village meets the meandering path of Salt Creek. The area transitions from the rural townships of Sigel and Douglas in the north toward the concentration of industry and infrastructure near the Illinois Central Railroad. The map reveals a complex water network where Henry Creek, Green Creek, and Spring Point Creek drain the surrounding farmland. In the eastern corridor, the village of Montrose sits near Interchange 105, marking the modern intersection of local settlement and regional transit. Smaller hamlets like Lillyville and Roslyn appear as small clusters of buildings, reflecting the late 20th-century settlement patterns of rural Illinois across the Cumberland and Effingham county lines.
