About Humboldt

Humboldt is a Kittson County city on U.S. Highway 75 in northwestern Minnesota. City Hall is on Ramsey Street, and Humboldt is part of the county's municipal network. MnDOT's 2024 trunk-highway map keeps the city on the route linking the Red River Valley to northern border communities. A post office has operated here since 1896, and the name is commonly linked either to Alexander von Humboldt or to German investors associated with the Great Northern Railway. Highway, county administration, and postal history give Humboldt its regional orientation.
