2018 Map of Kongsberg

About this map

Kongsberg sits at the junction of McHenry and McLean counties, characterized by a complex glacial landscape of prairie potholes and scattered wetlands. The settlement is anchored by the Saint John Lutheran Cem, serving as a significant landmark for local family historians and genealogists. To the south, the terrain descends toward Strawberry Lake, while the prominent elevation of Dogden Butte rises in the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The map details a rectilinear grid of rural roads, including 30th St NW and 25th St NW, which reflect the persistent township and range organization of this agricultural region. This survey captures the rural character of the North Dakota plains, where small community hubs and natural features like Camp 36 Lake define the social and physical geography.
