Kenwood, CA History
Filled with several landmarks that have been around for several decades, if not a whole century, Kenwood, CA is a rich tapestry of history. Originally inhabited by Native American tribes such as the Coastal Miwoks, the Pomos and the Wintuns, as many of the towns in the Sonoma Valley were, the area now known as Kenwood was eventually taken over by Spanish conquistadors and settled in order to have land in the new world. It wasn’t until 1823 that the area in the Sonoma Valley was truly settled and began to grow as more than just a simple land holding.
