A Guide to Gustavus History: Archival Repositories

Gustavus Adolphus College campus records, manuscript collections, student theses, college newspapers, yearbooks, and photographs are just some of the unique resources found in the College Archives. The Lutheran Church Archives houses records of largely Swedish-American church bodies in Minnesota, including photographs, congregational histories, biographical information and microfilmed church records. Many of the campus newspapers and photographs are digitized and available via the archives website.

Nicollet County has been a gateway and a gathering place for thousands of years. The County continues to be an important crossroads today with growing cities, important businesses and industry, recent immigrants, and productive agriculture.

The Nicollet County Historical Society interprets the rich history of our county, the Minnesota River Valley, and our state. Visit us at the Treaty Site History Center, Harkin Store, Fort Ridgely, or the E. St. Julien Cox House; come to a program; or search some of our collections here online or in our library.
