2013 Map of Le Sueur

About this map

The Minnesota River carves a deep valley through this region of southern Minnesota, creating a natural border between Sibley, Nicollet, and Le Sueur counties. The city of Le Sueur sits prominently on the eastern terrace of the river, where a network of local streets like Railroad St and N Main St meet transportation corridors such as Us-169. Further south along the riverbank, the smaller settlement of Ottawa remains a distinct point of interest. Several tributaries, including Rush River, Barney Fry Cr, and Le Sueur Cr, drain the surrounding agricultural uplands into the main river channel. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by a concentration of burial grounds, from the Saint Annes Cem in the north to the Evangelical Church Cem and Ottawa Cem in the south, while the Le Sueur Municipal Airport reflects more contemporary local infrastructure.
