Welcome!

With a long history of welcoming visitors from across the globe, we extend to you our warmest greetings!

Regardless of what brought you here, be it our legendary medical facilities or world-class shopping, dining and culture, we’re glad you’re here.

Rochester is a growing community that is consistently rated as one of the most livable cities in the U.S. There are skyways, walking subways, and easy outdoor access to almost everything you’ll need downtown–all within a short walk.

Rochester is also known for a rich array of unique locally owned businesses and thriving cultural and arts venues. Depending on the season, you can explore more than 85 miles of paved trails, visit one of more than 100 park areas, or try out activities like snowshoeing, cross country skiing or ice-skating. During the warmer months, visit one of our many great golf courses, or experience the popular Thursdays on First & 3rd Art Market & Music Festival. There is always something to do, regardless of the season.

If there is anything I can to do help you feel more at home here in our wonderful community, please don’t hesitate to give me a call or drop by City Hall. Enjoy our first-class city and first-class service!

THE SOLDIERS FIELD soldiers field veterans memorial

Soldiers Field Veterans Memorial is meant to honor the sacrifices of southeastern Minnesota veterans, past, present, and future. As a community, we’ve created a special place that honors our veterans, tells the story of conflicts throughout our history, and provides a place for members of the community to come and reflect on the weight of veterans’ sacrifices.

Soldiers Field Veterans Memorial is free for all visitors, so the lessons to be learned from our veterans are accessible to all.
