The Bremen Oil Boom commenced in
1907-08 and the town became a center
in the region's petroleum industry.
The area was a forest of oil derricks.
From this point south, it was said that one could
go down Broad Street from derrick to derrick
and not touch the ground. A reconstructed
derrick, erected to commemorate Bremen's sesquicentennial in 1984, may be seen in Howell
Park directly east of this marker.
