Maquoketa combines the steady pace of a county seat with the rugged limestone country of eastern Iowa in a way that reflects its position along the Maquoketa River. The river runs through the community, linking it to the agricultural valleys and wooded bluffs of this part of the state. Nearby Maquoketa Caves State Park is known for its limestone caves, trails and rock formations, adding an unusual geological dimension to the area. At the centre of town, the Jackson County Courthouse, completed in 1861, recalls Maquoketa’s longstanding civic role. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across eastern Iowa.
