Preserving American Stories
The city of Faribault was founded by French-Canadian fur trader Alexander Faribault. He established trading posts at several locations along the Cannon River upon arriving in the area in 1826. By 1835, a permanent post was built in the current city of Faribault, which is the Rice County seat.
Faribault is home to one of the first wood-frame houses in the territory, which still stands and is open for tours. A statue of Faribault and Chief Taopi by local artist Ivan Whillock stands in Heritage Park, along the beautiful bluffs of the Straight River near
downtown.
Faribault is renowned for its educational facilities, which include the Minnesota State Academy for the Deaf, the Minnesota State Academy for the Blind, and Shattuck-St. Mary’s School, in addition to well-supported public and parochial schools.
Through the years, Faribault has depended on mills, breweries, agriculture and manufacturing.
Manufacturing is still a strong part of the economy in the city today. Featuring home grown to hightech, Faribault is an industrial hub and is home to several international companies.
To delve more deeply into the area’s history, the Rice County Historical Museum is a good stop. There you’ll learn about the city’s early days, the stunning Episcopal cathedral, and Minnesota Gopher Heisman Trophy winner, Faribault’s Bruce Smith.
