Saint Cloud Celebrates Granite City Days
St. Cloud, Minnesota is the perfect place to make your mark outside the Twin Cities. Homes in Saint Cloud appeal to Millennials, established professionals, and families.
With a population around 67,000, St. Cloud is the state's 10th-largest city: It's the perfect mid-sized option for those who want high-class amenities along with community. Like many other major cities in Minneapolis, its history dates to the 1800s. It was founded in 1856 and named after the city of Saint-Cloud in France.
Although it stands just 65 miles from the Twin Cities, Saint Cloud has a character all its own. This is created, in part, by prestigious Saint Cloud University: The third-largest public university in the state.
St. Cloud has been The Granite City since practically the beginning and still has many active quarries today. Every year, residents get together to celebrate its heritage and all the city means to them with St. Cloud Granite City Days.
