Fiddletown, California is a registered California Historical Landmark (#35) community with a population of approximately 200 in the California foothills.

Fiddletown is roughly 50 miles directly east of Sacramento, at an elevation of 1687 feet.

Fiddletown served as a trading center for numerous gold camps during the California gold rush and had a very large Chinese population at that time. In its heyday, it was a social gathering place for weekend dances with people coming from as far as San Francisco.

The town was renamed Oleta in 1878 but the Fiddletown name was restored in 1932.
