Guide to Winthrop Minnesota

Winthrop is a city in Sibley County, Minnesota. Minnesota State Highways 15 and 19 are two of the main routes in the city. The South Branch of the Rush River starts near Winthrop. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1.06 square miles (2.75 km2), all of it land. The elevation is 1,037 feet above sea level.

WINTHROP, a city in section 6 of Alfsborg Township and section 31 of Transit Township, incorporated as a village before 1891 and as a city in 1910, was named by officers of the Minneapolis and St. Louis Railroad. The post office was known as Eagle City, 1858-82, and was first located in Michael Cummings's halfway house and tavern, a stagecoach stop that accommodated travelers on the Old Fort Ridgely Road; the post office was moved in 1868 to Charles A. Swanson's in section 6 of Alfsborg Township, and moved again in 1870 to section 29 of Transit Township and Ole Olson's home until 1881. Eagle City was incorporated on May 19, 1857; when Winthrop requested a post office in 1882, Elford Andrew Campbell, then postmaster of Eagle City, moved that post office to Winthrop; Campbell owned a number of buildings, was agent for the land company, and operated a law firm. The townsite was platted on land owned by Erick and Brita Olson, who had homesteaded the land in 1869 and platted the site in 1881. The village had a station serving several rail lines including the Minneapolis and St. Louis Railroad.
