==History==
It is known as the source of Mantorville limestone, which found its way into buildings across the United States. The [[limestone]] [[quarry|quarried]] in the area was soft and easily carved when first extracted, but became harder as it endured the elements, making it a long-lasting building material. The historic [[Hubbell House]]<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Hubbell House |url=https://www.hubbellhouserestaurant.com/ |access-date=2023-04-12 |website=The Hubbell House |language=en-US}}</ref> used the stone in 1856, and it was likewise used in 1865 for the [[Dodge County Courthouse (Minnesota)|Dodge County Courthouse]],<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.mncourts.gov/?siteID=0&page=CourtHouseProfile&ID=40018 | title=Minnesota Judicial Branch - Home }}</ref> designed by [[E.
