ABOUT                                       Facebook: Erhard, MN 

Erhard was established in 1882 and named for Alexander Erhard, an early settler. Erhard is located near the Leaf Mountains range. We are seven miles from Maplewood State Park and three miles from the Heart of Lakes trail.

​

Stop for lunch or dinner at The Depot, which offers a complete dining and bar menu. A convenience store, liquor store, and gas station have something for everyone. 

 

Our Veterans Memorial is located in the city park. The park has softball fields, a playground, a picnic shelter, and a beautiful gazebo. Pickleball courts will be ready by summer of 2024. Check out the photos below on our progress!

Erhard is known for our Fourth of July parade, which brings in thousands of people from the area. After the parade, join us for music in the park, concessions, Bingo, kids' games, corn hole toss, a beer garden, and other activities soon to be announced!

 

Come to worship and fellowship at Grace Lutheran Church. You'll be glad you did. While you're there, visit Adam's Garden, a peaceful and beautiful array of plants and flowers that bloom at different times of the year. The garden is a lovely place to say your wedding vows, take a few family pictures, or just catch your breath and spend a little time being still.
