Courtland is a city in Nicollet County, Minnesota, United States. The population was 734 at the 2020 census. [5] It is part of the Mankato-North Mankato Metropolitan Statistical Area.
The place occupied by the current town was named Courtland in 1865, but was previously named Hilo. [6] Courtland was platted in 1882. [7] There are conflicting records for the origin of the name. According to Bryant (1882) [6] the city was named for Cortland County, New York and not spelled the same; however, Stennett (1908) [8] suggests it is named after Courland, a once-Germanized region of present-day Latvia by an emigrant, J.H. Stewart, and was accidentally misspelled on the official record.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 2.64 square miles (6.84 km2), all land. [9]
