About Ceylon
Located in southern Minnesota just two miles north of the Iowa border, Ceylon is a quiet rural community surrounded by open farmland. Named after Ceylon tea crates spotted in a local general store back in 1899, the town offers a relaxed, small-town pace, with Clear Lake sitting just to the southwest for fishing and boating. While life in town is peaceful and laid-back, you are only about a 15-minute drive from Fairmont for everyday shopping, dining, and quick access to Interstate 90.
