Sartell got its start in the lumbering and paper company business as early as 1854 in the days leading up to the Civil War. Before the city was named Sartell, the town was dubbed "The Third Rapids" by French fur traders who stopped in the area several times due to its ideal hunting grounds. The city was eventually named after Joseph Sartell, one of the city's earliest settlers. During the 20th century, the city saw plenty of residential and commercial growth after the DeZurik Valve Company became one of the prominent manufacturing companies in the Midwest. Today, the city has grown into a thriving and exciting community of more than 15,800 residents, according to the 2010 U.S. Census Bureau and is showing no signs of slowing down.
