2018 Map of Eddyville

About this map

The Des Moines River winds through the heart of this Iowa landscape, serving as a natural boundary where the corners of Mahaska, Monroe, and Wapello counties converge. The town of Eddyville sits at this tri-county junction, showing a concentrated grid of streets and local landmarks. To the west, the smaller community of Bridgeport and the northern hamlet of Givin reflect the area’s rural heritage. This modern survey highlights a landscape deeply tied to its lineage through numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Henness Cem, Crane Cem, and Muchakinock Cem, often located on high ground overlooking the river valley. The topography is defined by the drainage of various tributaries, including Muchakinock Cr and Bluff Cr, which carve through the agricultural uplands before joining the main river channel.
