Oregon is a village in Dane County, Wisconsin, United States.

[5] Initially the settlement was known as "Rome Corners," and there is a road south of the village which still bears that name.

When the Chicago and North Western Railroad came through the village in 1864, their maps indicated a name of "Oregon," and the name was adopted.

The main railroad line from Chicago to Minneapolis ran through Oregon.

Many of Oregon's historical buildings still stand in the downtown district, including the Netherwood Block on the south, the Badger Cycle Company building and original water tower on the southeast on Janesville Street, and numerous business lining the west side of North and South Main Street.

It was recently restored and now serves as the business offices for the Gorman Company.

[8] According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 4.49 square miles (11.63 km2), all of it land.

US-14 previously ran through the village, traveling down North Main Street and then arcing along Janesville Street, but a bypass was constructed from 1976 to 1978 along the northern and eastern sides of the village.
