Victoria Area Guide for Minnesota’s Home Buyers and Sellers

Located in Carver County, Victoria is a quaint Minnesota community with just over 10,000 residents. This 9.79-square-mile community is often referred to as the “City of Lakes and Parks” because of its impressive acreage of reserved land (200 acres) and number of parks (13). Plus, it also has nine lakes within its borders alone! More than that, however, Victoria is the kind of community where you can really enjoy life.

A Little History of Victoria, MN

This community is believed to have first been settled by Michael Diethelm, who set up a shelter for his wife and two children in 1851 near the present day St. Victoria Church. The community was named after the church, which was built on 30 acres of land north of Lake Bavaria in 1857.

Connections to steamboats from St. Paul helped to bring supplies to the area, helping to further grow the community. Victoria’s rich soil also helped to attract farmers from all over.

Modern-Day Victoria

Victoria has been able to preserve its unique identity thanks to its strong sense of community and also the plethora of amenities within its borders. For instance, this community is home to the 1,800-acre Carver Park Reserve, which is absolutely gorgeous and is treasured by residents living here.

  • The University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum
