MOWER COUNTY GENEALOGY

 

Hoflanda Cemetery

Marshall Township

Mower County, Minnesota

Hoflanda Swedish Lutheran Church has been inactive for 64 years, much longer than it served originally as an active congregation. Built in 1888, it has been preserved and maintained by the Hoflanda Cemetery Association since 1937, when declining membership forced its closing.

This amazing local organization of grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the original church families does what it takes to keep the building and its heritage alive.
