Minnesota City History

Organized to foster appreciation and understanding of the history--the people, the places, the events--of Minnesota City and the area. Following the successful Sesquicentennial Celebration of Minnesota City in May, 2002, numerous citizens drafted a MCHA Mission Statement. A few of its highlights include:
- Researching community heritage & artifacts from pioneer days to the present, for programs, displays and events
- Marking places of historic interest
- Collecting archeological materials and papers relevant to the area's history
