Alexandria History
Alexandria marked a frontier of settlement in Minnesota when two brothers first established themselves here in 1859. The older brother, Alexander Kinkead, became the town's namesake by becoming the first postmaster and operating out of his log cabin. The settlers fled in 1862 after receiving word that natives had declared war. Following that exodus, Alexandria served as a government post until 1864 when it was abandoned. A few years later, settlers returned, lured by the free land offered by President Lincoln's Homestead Act.
Years of rural prosperity followed and, when the railway finally came to Alexandria in 1878, it paved the way for Alexandria's epoch as a host for pleasure-seekers. Upscale hotels were built to accommodate visitors to the many lakes.
Alexandria is celebrated as "the birthplace of America" due to the discovery of the Runestone in 1898. A swedish farmer discovered a centuries-old stone tablet incised with Viking runes indicating that an expedition of Northmen visited the area more than a hundred years before Columbus or Vespucci came over the sea.
Current Alexandria Amenties
Today, Alexandria real estate is kept active as a result of the city serving as a regional center for manufacturing, retail and service businesses, education and the arts, and medicine and wellness. Alexandria is located auspiciously in the heart of West Central Minnesota along the Interstate 94 transportation corridor. Alexandria is close to Fargo-Moorhead and the Twin Cities, and has a well-educated labor force encouraging businesses to arrive and allowing established businesses to flourish.
