Bonaparte, IA 52620

Bonaparte, Iowa, originally founded as Meeks Mills in 1837, is steeped in history and charm, situated on the banks of the Des Moines River. The town's National Historic Riverfront District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, showcases a delightful mix of historic architecture, including Victorian homes and charming cottages, alongside a vibrant community spirit that has revitalized its downtown.

Once a thriving hub due to its river mill complex, Bonaparte saw a decline in population and industry but has since experienced a renaissance through local restoration efforts. The community's dedication to preserving its heritage while fostering growth has earned Bonaparte recognition as the smallest Main Street Community in the United States and a recipient of the Great American Main Street Award.
