Algona Founded In 1854 By Asa and Ambrose Call
Algona’s origins trace to July 1854 when Asa C Call and brother Ambrose chose a river site with timber and water power. They built a cabin near present Ambrose A Call State Park while William Smith joined later, and Mrs. Call named the town after the Italian word for beauty. Memorials honor the founders with a stone monument, brass marker, and the original house.
