2018 Map of Venturia

About this map

Venturia sits at the northern edge of this prairie landscape, where a grid of rural avenues including 1st Ave and 4th Ave serves the immediate townsite. The surrounding countryside is defined by the high concentration of small, denominational burial grounds that reflect the area's deep-rooted settlement history. These sites, such as the Zion Lutheran Cem, Venturia Baptist Cem, and the family-named Joachim Cem, are scattered across the section lines near the North Dakota-South Dakota border. The hydrology is dominated by a sprawling lake system in the northeast and the meandering course of Spring Cr to the south. This area, spanning the McIntosh and McPherson County line, maintains a traditional agrarian layout with long-established section roads like 100th St SE and Co Hwy 4 providing the primary transit network between scattered homesteads and regional centers.
