Kremlin is a town in Garfield County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 255 at the 2010 census, a 6.25 percent increase from the figure of 240 in 2000.[3]
The community now known as Kremlin was once called Wild Horse. The Chisholm Trail passed within a quarter mile of the community. The Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad built a line through the area in 1889. The opening of the Cherokee Outlet for settlement in 1889, led to a flood of settlers. Among them were a group of farmers of German descent from Russia. They brought seeds of winter-hardy Russian wheat that became the major farm crop in this area. The town was renamed in their honor.
Kremlin is 3miles south of the Grant-Garfield county line.[4]
