Strasburg was laid out in 1902 when a spur of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul Railroad was extended to that point.[3] The city was named after Straßburg, Ukraine, a town founded by 18th century German immigrants in South Russia and now (with all the Germans expelled) renamed Kuchurhan, Rozdilna Raion.
