2013 Map of Spring Grove

About this map

Spring Grove serves as the primary hub in this corner of Houston County, where MN-44 connects small rural communities across a landscape defined by deep valleys and high bluffs. The settlement patterns reflect a strong Norwegian heritage, evidenced by the cluster of religious sites such as the Riceford Norwegian Cem and the Spring Grove Lutheran Cem. To the north, the terrain rises toward Black Hammer Bluff, overlooking the scattered farmsteads of Black Hammer. Waterways like Riceford Cr and Beaver Cr West carve through the topography, influencing the placement of historical roads and early settlements like Newhouse. The presence of several distinct burial grounds, including Holy Trinity Cem and the Old Black Hammer Cem, provides a detailed record of the families who established these townships. Local infrastructure is further detailed by features like the Deters Farms Airport and the Supersaw Valley Campground.
