Zumbrota is a city in Goodhue County, Minnesota, United States, along the North Fork of the Zumbro River. The population was 3,252 at the 2010 census.[3] It promotes itself as "the only Zumbrota in the world."

History

[edit]

Zumbrota was claimed as a town in 1856 by Joseph Bailey and D.B. Goddard. The name Zumbrota appears to have resulted from a corruption of the French name for the local Zumbro River, Rivière des Embarras (Obstruction River), coupled with the Dakota toŋ (village).[4][5]

Zumbrota is home to the Zumbrota Covered Bridge, the last functioning covered bridge in the state of Minnesota. It was originally installed in 1869, one year before the arrival of railroads to the area.[6][7] The bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[8]

The Zumbrota Public Library was the first tax-supported library in Minnesota.[9]

The city of Zumbrota celebrated its sesquicentennial in 2006.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has an area of 2.68 square miles (6.94 km2), of which 2.67 square miles (6.92 km2) is land and 0.01 square miles (0.03 km2) is water.[10]
