Northfield, MN | A 4K Jefferson Highway City Walking Tour
Along the banks of the Cannon River lies charming Northfield, Minnesota. With its 150 years of history, art, culture and education, Northfield offers something for everyone. Northfield was platted in 1856 by John W. North. Local legend says that the town was named for John North and a Mr. Field. North, realizing that the town straddled the proposed northern border of Rice county, went to the state capital to lobby to move the border one mile north. Northfield was founded by settlers from New England known as Yankees as part of New England's colonization of what was then the far west. It was an early agricultural center with many wheat and corn farms. The town also supported lumber and flour mills powered by the Cannon River. The city's motto, Cows, Colleges, and Contentment, reflects the influence of the dairy farms as well as its two liberal arts colleges.
