Fulda Minnesota Community Guide
Location:
|
|
Fulda is located on Highway 59 just 15 minutes
north of I-90 on the gently rolling prairie plains of Murray
County in southwestern Minnesota. The prairie of this area of
Minnesota provides a variety of high quality natural resources
including productive soils, many lakes, small streams, a
multitude of marshes, abundant wildlife and lots of clean air.
Fulda encompasses the north shore of beautiful Seven Mile Lake,
a 177 acre recreational lake. Fulda was established in 1881 as a
railroad community. America was stretching out into the rich
agricultural promise of the Great North American Prairie and
immigrants from Europe were pouring into the United States.
Settled by
German, Irish, and Scandinavian immigrants, Fulda is still
predominantly an agricultural community even today, though many
of Fulda inhabitants commute to manufacturing, retail and
service industry jobs within a 40 mile radius. Fulda's people
inherited a strong work ethic from their ancestry. Our people
believe in the hometown idea of working together, helping each
other and getting involved in their community. |

History:
FULDA,
a city in sections 25 and 26 in Bondin, was named for an ancient city in
central Germany
on the river Fulda, noted for its early medieval abbey founded in 744,
and its beautiful cathedral, built in 1704-12. The village was platted
on July 19, 1879, by Benjamin W. Woolstencroft and incorporated as a
village in November 21, 1881. The townsite at Seven Mile Lake first had
a post office called Bondin in section
24, 1874-79, the name changing at that time to Fulda; the village had a
station serving the Southern Minnesota Railroad and the Chicago,
Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad. Courtesy Minnesota
