Welcome to the Mazeppa Area Historical Society !
The Mazeppa Area Historical Society would like to invite you, to join them in creating a place to share our memories, photos, and memorabilia of the past, present and future to be enjoyed and preserved by the Mazeppa Community and its visitors to the area.
The Mazeppa Area Historical Society was founded in the fall of 2010, obtaining 501c-3, non-profit status. All donations are tax-deductible.
An early goal of the MAHS was to obtain a building for displaying and sharing photos and artifacts that can be enjoyed by the Mazeppa Community and its visitors. The Mazeppa Area Historical Society is proud to announce our recent purchase of the old People’s State Bank.
The mission of the Historical Society is to collect, preserve and disseminate knowledge about the city and surrounding area of Mazeppa. Our new building will also have a research center for genealogy searches, with who’s who of past citizens, businesses, farms, births, deaths etc.

The Friendship Wagon Train started its trek on Saturday, June 24 in Owatonna. Now in its 29th year, the Friendship Wagon Train raises money so that children and adults with developmental disabilities can attend Camp Winnebago near Caledonia. On June 29th the wagon train came to Mazeppa. They camped overnight, down by the river near the athletic field. They left to continue on their journey, early Friday morning.

2017 Cemetery Clean Up
The Mazeppa Historical Society ----A "Huge Thank You" goes out to the strong students of Zumbrota-Mazeppa High School, who came to help with straightening monuments at the Mazeppa Cemetery- your help in preserving the history will always be rewarded! The metal monument has been leaning for years & dates back to 1918!
We also wants to send out a big "Thank You" to the students & their advisers who were working so hard over on the Public Cemetery with scrubbing, rinsing, and edging monuments. A job well noticed by all who come to the cemetery on how we take pride in providing a beautiful resting spot for our loved ones!!! - MAHS President Helen Reiland
