There are nine historical sites on the National Registry in and around Elkader click here for more information.

Elkader is a beautiful little northeast Iowa town nestled in a rolling valley aside of the Turkey River in Clayton County. The last glaciers of the Ice Age didn't flatten the landscape so the region is hilly with woodlands and rich farmland. 

 There are approximately 1600 people who live here and call Elkader their home. There are unending beautiful sites and scenery in Elkader and many thriving businesses here and the surrounding areas.
