History St. Ansgar is named for the patron saint of Scandinavia, a French Benedictine monk who christianized much of Denmark, Sweden, and northern Germany between 830 and 865 A.D. The town is the site of a pioneer Norwegian Lutheran Church founded in December of 1853 by Rev. Claus Lauritz Clausen, a Dane who was commissioned by the Lutheran Church of Norway to form congregations for Norwegian immigrants in Wisconsin, Iowa, and Minnesota. Ansgar, etching by Hugo Hamilton (1830) Ansgar, Anskar or Oscar, (September 8?, 801 - February 3, 865) was an Archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen. ...
The St.Ansgar congregation and town served as a center for the dispersion of Norwegian settlers further north into Minnesota and also into western Iowa from the mid-1850s into the 1870s. Clausen formed 21 additional congregations, the majority further west and north. (booklet published by the First Lutheran Church of St. Ansgar on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the congregation, 1853-2003; available in the Iowa State Historical Society collection).
A fortified stone outbuilding locally called Fort Severson, one half mile west of St.Ansgar, was built in 1867 by settlers associated with the Clausen settlement anxious about the continued presence of Sauk and Fox Native Americans travelling through the area along the Deer Creek and the Cedar River. Their fears were animated by the killing of white settlers at Spirit Lake Iowa in 1857 and in New Ulm, Minnesota in 1862. The distinctively fortified building is the sole surviving example of many that were built. The site is open to the public. [1]
