Located 65 miles southwest of the Twin Cities and 12 miles north of Mankato, St. Peter is a community of 11,196 people set in the heart of the Minnesota River Valley.
Originally founded in 1853 as Rock Bend after the natural ledge of the river, the town’s name was changed to St. Peter after the river running by the town (now the Minnesota River). St. Peter serves as the county seat for Nicollet County and is the home of Gustavus Adolphus College. Boasting a strong school system, state-of-the-art medical campus, and an abundance of opportunities for recreation – St. Peter is an ideal place to call home.
