History

The origin of the name comes from the Dakota word chanhasen meaning “sugar-maple tree” (chan, tree; haza, a tree with sap). The northern metro area Hassan Township carried the latter morpheme of the word prior to its merger with the city of Rogers to avoid confusion. Chanhassen merged with Chanhassen Township in 1967, bringing the population to 4,200.
