Kasson is best known in southeastern Minnesota for the annual Kasson Festival in the Park, a community event centred on a parade and local gatherings. The city developed as a railroad town in Dodge County, and its name honours Jabez Hyde Kasson, an Iowa congressman and diplomat. Set among the cultivated, gently rolling terrain of the Zumbro River watershed, Kasson is part of the wider Rochester area while retaining a compact small-town centre. Nearby Mantorville is noted for its nineteenth-century limestone buildings. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Kasson and southeastern Minnesota.
