History

Cleveland was established as a village in 1854, and incorporated as a city in 1904. The community was named after Cleveland, Ohio.

Under its original founders, Cleveland was a temperance town and thus voted no licensing of saloons in the town.

In 1859, Cleveland and nearby Le Sueur began a heated rivalry over the role of the Le Sueur county seat. The rivalry continued with only minor bloodshed until 1875, when a group of Cleveland citizens organized a militia to take the county seat by force. The militia retrieved the county seat from Le Sueur. After more than year of holding the county seat, Le Center agreed to take the seat where remains today.
