Editing Zumbro Falls, Minnesota (section)

==History==
The original settlement on the south side of the Zumbro River dates back to 1857. A [[grist-mill]] [[dam]] built in 1866 created the falls for which the town is named. Numerous floods have swept away all but a few traces of the dam. Frequent flooding and a [[tornado]] prompted relocation to the north of the river. A [[railroad]] arrived in the relocated settlement in 1881. The city was incorporated in 1898.

In September 2010, the city was flooded again, and evacuated.<ref>{{cite news |title=Zumbro Falls swallowed by floodwaters, residents evacuated|newspaper=[[Rochester Post-Bulletin]]|date=2010-09-24|url=http://www.postbulletin.com/newsmanager/templates/localnews_story.asp?z=2&a=471091|access-date=2010-09-25}}</ref> Many buildings were destroyed or damaged.<ref>{{cite news |title=In flood-damaged cities, no place is home|newspaper=[[Rochester Post-Bulletin]]|date=2010-09-26|url=http://www.postbulletin.com/newsmanager/templates/localnews_story.asp?z=2&a=471286|access-date=2010-09-27}}</ref>
