History

The village was incorporated in 1816. The name of the village and town are believed to relate to the city, Berlin in Germany, due to the number of early German settlers. The true origin of the name comes from one of its earliest settlers' heritage in Berlin, New York, or Berlin, Connecticut.

The Horace O. Moss House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[3] The New Berlin Historic District was listed in 1982.[3]
