How to Use This Cannon Falls, Minnesota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cannon Falls, Minnesota. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Minnesota or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Cannon Falls.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Cannon Falls emerges where the Little Cannon River carves a persistent path through the limestone-rich earth, defining the character of the landscape with its steady, unceasing flow. It lies 13.1 miles east-northeast of Northfield, MN (from Northfield, MN: bearing 75°T), and is situated 19.3 miles east-southeast of Lakeville. The surrounding terrain rises into modest, verdant swells that anchor the horizon, while the quiet waters of Lake Fredrickson mirror the changing colors of the sky as the afternoon light wanes. John Burch Park provides a sanctuary where the dense, leafy canopy filters the sun into shifting patterns upon the ground, offering a place for the local flora to thrive in the cool, damp air. In the distance, the faint, hazy silhouette of Warrentown Ridge suggests a larger world beyond the immediate reach of the valley, while the nearby Clark Valley remains a testament to the slow, patient erosion that has shaped this inland expanse over countless seasons.

Cannon Falls maintains an identity forged by its reliance on the land, where the rhythms of regional agriculture and small-scale industry dictate the pace of the day. The legacy of early settlement persists in the sturdy architecture of the center, reflecting a heritage that valued craftsmanship and the quiet endurance of a community built upon the soil. Residents navigate the transition between seasons with a practiced focus, turning to the river and the surrounding woods as the primary conduits of local life. Whether marked by the harvest or the deep silence of the long, frost-heavy winters, Cannon Falls functions as a place where the connection to the physical environment remains immediate and undeniable, grounding the collective experience in the simple, recurring truths of the changing weather and the perennial growth of the plains.

About This Cannon Falls Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cannon Falls, Minnesota. Coordinates: 44.517265, -92.889342. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Cannon Falls includes the ZIP code (55009), telephone area code (612, 952), county seat of Goodhue County (Red Wing), and school district assignment (Cannon Falls Public School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
