Heiberg Park
Norman County Minnesota

In the neighborhood of the mill there is a birch grove, which Heiberg has transformed and improved so it rightly should be called " Frydenlund "Grove of Joy”.
When you arrive at the grove which is located 100 - 150 feet above the river, one have a real excellent view. If one turn toward the river, one can see a distance both up and down the river. To the left, just outside the park, the mill is located, and close to it the gorgeous iron bridge, which connect the North and South side of the river.
A bit further up is the railway bridge, and when a train is coming roaring over, from the north or the south, one has a real magnificent appearance. Much could be told about this park, but one will learn most about it by visiting it yourself. When one visits Heiberg during the summer, you should not fail to pay a visit to the park, - yes, if you go there just to have a look, you will find it worth the trouble. What the nature did not, Mr. Heiberg has remedied such as preparing artificial, tempting benches to sit down and rest, such in American is called Rustic benches.
He also her and there has arranged flowerbeds in all kind of forms and sizes.
Additional he has also builded an excellent speaker's platform, which every speaker will be
delighted to enter.
Mr. Heiberg has made this park with the intention that it also could be a suitable place for outdoor celebrations. And it is the truth that it is usable for that ! I do not know any place within this four towns which can be a more beautiful place for a 4th of July or 17de May celebration. Indeed, on a 17de May with the Norwgian flag flying of the top of the birchs, would be a delightful sight. And because people now has started to float the logs down the Wild Rice River from the pine wood in the White Earth Reservation, it could be that, you could see a pine log floating down the river, so you could be tempted to believe that you were by some norwegian river like Lågen, Flisen or Glomma. So, you who visits Heiberg, go to Frydenlund and see for yourself !
