History

The village was settled about 1877 as Central, Minnesota, with a post office of that name from 1878 to 1885. The name was changed to Clinton in 1885, and the village was platted. The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad station, named Batavia, was moved to the village in 1885, but the station name was not changed to Clinton until the village was incorporated in 1890. The railroad loading platform, named Rupert, two miles south of the village, was moved to the village in 1890.
