History

The community first flourished as a logging town, and logging remains the dominant private industry. Settled primarily by Finnish and Scandinavian immigrants, the community has maintained this cultural heritage despite a declining percentage of traditional family names. Since 1982, Naselle has hosted a “Finnish-American Folk Festival” every other year, and in 2006 co-hosted, with the nearby city of Astoria, Oregon, the national festival FinnFest USA.
