2022 Map of Pella

About this map

Pella stands at the heart of this landscape, its grid layout anchored by the historic campus of Central College. The town’s growth is evident in the residential developments extending toward the Pella Municipal Airport and the surrounding agricultural tracts. The geography is defined by a series of waterways, including Lighting Cr and Thunder Cr, which drain the rolling terrain between the South Skunk River to the north and the expansive Lake Red Rock in the southwest corner. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds throughout the region, ranging from the large Graceland Cem and Oak Wood Cem near the city center to smaller family and rural plots such as t'Lam Cem, Hannold Cem, and Parsons Cem.
