История [ править ]

Город Олден, ранее входивший в состав Кларенса , был основан 27 марта 1823 г. и зафиксирован в Законах штата Нью-Йорк, сессия 46, гл. 89 (1823 г.). [4] Часть Олдена была позже передана в город Марилла в 1853 году.

Бесплатная библиотека Юэлла в Олдене была построена в 1913 году.

В 1856 году община Олден в городе образовала деревню. Город стал более популярным благодаря открытию ванн с черной водой в 1891 году. Люди приезжали из Буффало и из районов далеко к востоку от города, чтобы испытать целебную силу ванн с черной водой.
