History

Belgrade is a city in sections 18 and 19 of Crow River Township. It shares its name with the capital of Serbia, a township and its village in Maine, as well as villages in Missouri, Nebraska, and Montana. It was platted in 1887 by the Pacific Land Company and incorporated as a village on March 19, 1888; the post office began as Crow Lake in 1871, changing to Belgrade in 1886. When the railroad came in 1886, there already were a number of businesses; it had a station of the Minneapolis and Pacific Railroad. The first house in Belgrade was built by Norwegian immigrant, Otto Christianson in 1874. Belgrade was named after the first child born in the township right before the town incorporation, Isabella Theolina Christianson in 1887.[6] The city contains one property listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the 1904 Christopher Borgerding House.[7] Arthur Michael Braun (1910-1989), politician and businessman, was born in Belgrade.[8] When building their Centennial Memorial park Belgrade broke the world record for largest Crow in the world.[5]
