About this map

Springfield serves as the primary hub in this portion of Brown County, situated along the winding course of the Cottonwood River. The town's grid is well-defined by streets such as W Central St, E Sanborn St, and S Range Rd, supporting a local economy anchored by the Springfield Municipal Airport and recreational spaces like Rothenburg Campground. The surrounding landscape is dominated by agricultural sections and drainage patterns, including the Little Cottonwood River and Mound Cr, which traverse the southern prairie lands.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the rural cemeteries that dot the countryside, including Springfield Cem, the Moravian Cem, and Faith Cem. The small settlement of Dotson appears to the southwest, while the presence of the Reed Lakebed indicates the hydrologic character of the area's flat terrain. This survey provides a clear view of the rural road network, from major routes like Us-14 and MN-258 to the numerous numbered section lines that define this Minnesota farming community.
