2010 Map of Cannon Falls

About this map

Cannon River waters dominate the southern portion of this Goodhue County landscape, controlled by the Byllesby Dam which forms the expansive Lake Byllesby. This 2010 survey illustrates a primarily agricultural region punctuated by established rural settlements like Hampton and New Trier, where Saint Mary's Catholic Church and its associated Saint Mary's Catholic Church Cemetery serve as local landmarks. The area's history is deeply etched into its numerous burial grounds, including Lakeside Cemetery on the lake's western edge and Zion Cemetery further north. In the town of Cannon Falls, the confluence of the Little Cannon River and the main branch creates a hub of activity near the Cannon Valley Fairgrounds. Regional connectivity is defined by established routes such as Rochester Blvd and the Cannon Valley Trl, which follow the natural contours of the river valley.
