History

Originally, this area was a part of the Winnebago Reservation from 1855 to 1863. John Graham established a hotel in what is now the town in 1870. When the railroad arrived in Minnesota, the town began as an agricultural commerce center.

Good Thunder was platted in April 1871, and named for a Winnebago chief (who was also known as Wakuntchapinka). Chief Good Thunder was well known to the early white towns people, and he had converted to Christianity.

The town was incorporated on March 2, 1893.
