Le Sueur County was established in 1853 through an act passed by the Minnesota Territorial Legislature. Named after the French explorer Pierre Charles Le Sueur who traveled up the St. Peter River (now the Minnesota River) in the 1700s, the County began with a majority of its settlements located on the water. Without established roads, those who claimed land in the center of the county were isolated, making commercial activity extremely difficult. That is, until the addition of the railroad. With the railroad came the establishment of stockyards, banks, and industry to Le Sueur Center, prompting the population to boom. Today, Le Sueur County is home to just fewer than 30,000 residents and is a County know for both modern amenities and small town living.
