The people of Greater Mankato are focused on the future.
Our progressive character has its roots in the early 18th-century
exploration of the “blue earth” surrounding the bend in the
Minnesota River. The history of our drive to become the center
of commerce and government in the new state of Minnesota is
fascinating, colorful, and at times, tragic.
Greater Mankato maintains significant archives and numerous historical
markers throughout the area. Frequent public presentations interpret
our past and encourage us to participate in the preservation of the
history we are making today.
