2010 Map of New Richland

About this map

The Le Sueur River and its tributary, the Little Le Sueur River, wind through this agricultural landscape in southern Minnesota, anchoring a region defined by scattered rural settlements and deep-rooted community institutions. In New Richland, the concentrated grid of streets is served by the New Richland Post Office and bordered by the Calvary Cemetery. The map reveals a high density of religious and commemorative sites indicative of the area's heritage, such as the Vista Swedish Lutheran Church and its accompanying Vista Swedish Lutheran Church Cemetery, alongside the Le Sueur River American Lutheran Church and the Pontoppidan Lutheran Cemetery. Water remains a central feature of the local geography, with recreation and resource management highlighted by Saint Olaf Lake, the Saint Olaf Lake Dam, and the nearby Fosilen Lake.
