YOUR QUICKSTART GUIDE TO LIVING IN THIEF RIVER FALLS
HISTORY OF THIEF RIVER FALLS
Thief River Falls first developed as a
lumber milling town. It also became a
major agricultural service area because
of the rich soil left by ancient, glacial
Lake Agassiz.
The unusual name, “Thief River,” was
given to the river by the Ojibwe and
Dakota people. “Falls” was added to
the name of the new city in 1896
because of a series of rapids. At one
point, the river had been converted to
a waterfall by the construction of the
dam. Until 1904, an Ojibwe village of
40 families was located where the
Thief River and Red Lake River meet.
The Great Northern and the Soo Line
Railroads brought prosperity when
Thief River Falls became a center for
shipping wheat. Today, the city
continues its entrepreneurial spirit,
preserving and respecting the past, yet
growing and moving toward the
future.
