Freeburg in the past five years surged forward in the recreation area upon the completion of a survey by Southern Illinois University of the needs of Freeburg.

The Village can also boast of a memorial park in the center of the village dedicated to the veterans of the World Wars, It covers a city block in the center of the business district.
