History Population 2,395 The township of Kellogg was established in 1892. Kellogg is named after Noah Kellogg (his jackass is credited with finding the first Galena ore in 1884) founder of The Bunker Hill Mine, once one of the largest employers in the region. Headquarters buildings are now converted into hostels and are popular for travelers interested in modest accommodations. In 1886 Kellogg was linked by rail to the Coeur d'Alene River at Cataldo where steamboats carried supplies from Coeur d' Alene and minerals to connections in Spokane. With the completion of the Veterans Memorial Centennial Bridge in 1992, the trip from Coeur d'Alene to Kellogg by auto is less than 30 minutes. |
