How to Use This Sedan, Minnesota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sedan, 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 Sedan.

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.

Sedan occupies a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the prairie, where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered under a sky that seems to hold more light than the earth below. It lies 22.3 miles south-southeast of Alexandria, MN (from Alexandria, MN: bearing 164°T), and is situated 8.6 miles southeast of Glenwood. The terrain is marked by the subtle, glacial-carved contours of the regional topography, a place where the stillness of McCloud Lake, only a mile distant, mirrors the drifting clouds of an endless Minnesota afternoon. Beyond the immediate fields, the landscape transition toward the Sedan State Wildlife Management Area offers a sanctuary of tall grasses and native brush that shiver in the prevailing winds. To the west, the East Branch Chippewa River traces a slow, deliberate path through the lowlands, its waters providing a steady, rhythmic pulse to the surrounding fields. The air here carries a crisp, clean weight, particularly as the sun begins to dip toward the distant silhouette of Blue Mounds, casting long, violet shadows that stretch across the stubble of the harvested crops.

Agriculture remains the primary anchor of the local economy, with the rhythm of the seasons dictating the pace of life in Sedan far more than any clock. The settlement bears the quiet marks of its history, a heritage of industrious hands that turned the heavy soil into a productive expanse of grain and pasture. While the world beyond moves with an frantic, unseen velocity, Sedan maintains a deliberate gravity, where the maintenance of farm equipment and the seasonal cycle of planting and harvest dictate the communal schedule. The land holds a particular, austere beauty in the autumn, when the golden hues of the plains harmonize with the pale, thin light of the North, turning the fields into a vast expanse of shifting amber. It is a place where the silence of the winter months is not an absence, but a presence, settling over the plains with a weight that demands respect and a quiet, stoic endurance from those who call the region home.

About This Sedan Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sedan, Minnesota. Coordinates: 45.575519, -95.248085. 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 Sedan includes the ZIP code (56334), telephone area code (320), county seat of Pope County (Glenwood), and school district assignment (Minnewaska 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.
