1953 Map of Fredenberg

About this map

The Wild Rice Lake Reservoir and Island Lake Reservoir dominate this 1950s landscape north of Duluth, where the hydrologic management of the St. Louis River watershed is clearly visible. The small settlement of Fredenberg serves as a central point in a region characterized by a network of large reservoirs and smaller natural bodies like Fredenberg Lake and Schultz Lake. The map reveals the transitional nature of the local economy and infrastructure, featuring a Railroad Grade and a Gravel Pit, alongside evidence of fire protection and community life such as the Mirror Lake Lookout Tower and St Joseph Ch. The jagged shorelines of the Fish Lake Reservoir highlight the complex topography of the Fredenberg and Gnesen townships during a period when these waters were critical for both local power and regional utility.
