Welcome to Buchanan County, Iowa
Where the heart of the Midwest meets the charm of small-town America. Nestled in the rolling hills and picturesque landscapes of northeastern Iowa, Buchanan County offers a refreshing escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Our county is a hidden gem, rich in resources, history, heritage, architecture, and good old-fashioned family fun! The beautiful Wapsipinicon River, coursing from northwest to southeast through the county, creates a scenic backdrop to this thriving agricultural area. Historic Route 20 crosses the county east to west, providing access to historic and architectural sites along the way. And Highway 150 North leads to the Old Order Amish Community and is the southern gateway to Northeast Iowa, one of the state's most diverse regions, both in landscape and cultural opportunities. Outdoor enthusiasts, sightseers, avid shoppers, and those in search of country life will all find Buchanan County a great place to visit.
