Welcome to Pilsen! The heart of Pilsen is along 18th Street, an active commercial corridor, with Mexican bakeries, restaurants, and groceries. Pilsen has always been a port of entry for successive waves of poor foreign immigrants. The first Bohemian (Czech) families came to Chicago in 1853 and began settling in Pilsen in 1868 in large numbers.

In addition to the information below, the PilsenPortal.org website is a good resource for additional Pilsen neighborhood news, organizations, businesses and resources.
