The town of Nowa Nowa was formed in 1888.
It wasn’t until 1923 that the first (and second) mills were built in town which established Nowa Nowa as a timber town.
The first store was built not long after in 1925 with Jack Rule opening the Nowa Nowa General Store.
Many boards are scattered through the town that can give visitors a glimpse of the rich history of this wonderful town.
