Nininger
The Nininger Town Hall is built on the site of the home of Ignatius Donnelly, known as the "sage of Nininger." It was founded by John Nininger, brother-in-law of Governor Alexander Ramsey. Incorporated in 1858 as a thriving community, its place as the immigration center to Minnesota crumbled when the railroad bridge was built in neighboring Hastings. Many of the fine residences were moved to Hastings and Nininger became sort of a ghost town. Today, being on the Mississippi with many of its views arguably the finest natural scenery anywhere, parks, bike trails and farms make this an ideal place to live and raise families. Today there are some four hundred residences and nearly everyone came out to vote at election time.
