Chisago County Board of Commissioners

CHISAGO COUNTY HISTORY Chisago County was established in 1851, seven years before Minnesota became a state. The county seat, first at Taylors Falls, moved to Chisago City in 1865 and to Center City in 1875. The wood frame courthouse built at Center City in 1876 stood at the site of the new Government Center until 1990 when it was moved to Taylors Falls and later to Almelund.

The St. Croix River, which forms the county’s eastern boundary, brought the earliest settlers to the area. The Dakota and Ojibwe were largely gone when the first white settlers appeared. Europeans arrived from the north as early as 1680. French fur traders following the same route southward from Lake Superior established trading posts along the river as far south as Taylors Falls in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. In the late 1830s the first sawmills were built along the St. Croix. The logging industry boomed into the 20th century.

Among the first permanent settlers was a party of Swedes who traveled up river from Illinois in 1851 and established a colony at Center City. This colony was made famous by Swedish writer Vilhelm Moberg in his novels, The Emigrants, Unto A Good Land, The Settlers, and The Last Letter Home.

Meets first and third Wednesday of each month, 6:30 p.m.

Farming began in the 1850s and was a focus until the 1890s when vacationers discovered the county’s bountiful lakes and rivers. Today it is the beauty of the Dalles of the St. Croix, its park system and abundant recreational areas that bring visitors to the county.
