The Fillmore County Public Health Department is located in a governmental building in Preston, Minn., in the southwest corner of the state. The company moved into its current headquarters in 2000, but construction began in 1998. The building was built for nearly $2 million. The architectural firm for this project was TSP One. The more than 26,000-square-foot Fillmore County Office Building s upper level houses the Fillmore County Public Health Department. Fillmore County s present boundaries were established in 1855. Fillmore County was established and was named in honor of President Millard Fillmore who was President of the United States 1850 to 1853. At the time of Minnesota s statehood, Fillmore was the most populous county in Minnesota, a distinction held until 1870. Its population peak occurred in 1895 at 28,000-plus people.
