History:  

LUVERNE, a city in Luverne Township and the county seat, first settled in 1867-68, platted as a village in 1870, was incorporated by a legislative act February 14, 1877, and by vote of its people November 12, 1878. Nearly 26 years later, on September 7, 1904, it was organized as a city. This name was adopted for the post office begun in the winter of 1868, being in honor of Eva Luverne Hawes, the eldest daughter of the first settler here, Philo Hawes; Hawes's step-brother, Edward McKenzie, was postmaster. She was born at Cannon Falls in Goodhue County, November 14, 1857; accompanied her parents to the Rock River home in 1868; was married to P. F. Kelley, September 5, 1876; and died in Luverne, June 9, 1881. In the early years the name was spelled as two words, Lu Verne, "but the style was gradually replaced by the present form." The personal name was found in a novel or romance, then probably a new book or published in a magazine, which was read by Philo Hawes's cousin Lucy Cotter, of Red Wing, at whose request the baby Luverne was so named.

As her father and mother are also honored by the name of the village and city, this notice may desirably add that he was born in Danby, N.Y., December 18, 1830, and died at Luverne, August 10, 1908. He came to Minnesota in 1853; served as second lieutenant in the Eleventh Minnesota Regiment in the Civil War; was a mail carrier in 1867 between Blue Earth, Minn., and Yankton, Dakota Territory; settled on the site of Luverne in March 1868; was chairman of the board of county commissioners, 1871-73; was postmaster of Luverne, 1871-74 and 1888-93; and engaged in real estate and insurance business.

Blue Mounds State Park is located 4 miles north of Luverne on Highway 75 and 1 mile east on County Road 20. Blue Mounds State Park is full of natural surprises! Start with the Sioux quartzite cliff, rising 100 feet from the plains. A bison herd grazes on the prairie. Prickly pear cacti bloom in June and July. A sea of prairie grasses and flowers sway in the wind. The park is also a favorite for birdwatchers who want to see nesting blue grosbeaks and other birds. Enjoy camping, hiking, climbing, biking, as well as the unique sights and wonderful aromas of a beautiful prairie.
