New Hartford, Minnesota's history dates
back to the mid 1800's when it was founded by a group of German and
Norwegian immigrants who left Hartford, Connecticut after the Great
Hartford
Circus Fire of '55. The culture and traditions that the original
immigrants
brought with them from Germany and Norway remain active today, giving
New Hartford a distinctively European feel.
