Pennington County is located in the northwestern region of the great state of Minnesota. It was established on November 23, 1910, and was named in honor of Edmund Pennington, a prominent railroad executive who served as the second vice president of the Northern Pacific Railway. The county was formed from sections of Red Lake County, which served as its parent county.

The county seat of Pennington County is Thief River Falls, a city that developed around the confluence of the Thief and Red Lake rivers. Historically, the area was inhabited by Ojibwa and Dakota people and served as a fur trading post in the 19th century. The town's growth was primarily driven by the arrival of the railroad in the 1880s, which provided a significant boost to the local timber industry and later to agriculture.

Today, Pennington County's economy is diverse and includes agriculture, manufacturing, and services sectors, with major employers such as Digi-Key and Arctic Cat. The county has a total area of 618 square miles, with a mix of forested areas, farmland, and several parks and natural areas for recreational activities.

Fun Fact: Pennington County is home to the annual "Thief River Falls Winterfest", a popular winter event that includes ice sculpting, snowmobile races, and other winter-themed activities. This event draws numerous visitors to the region each year, promoting community engagement and contributing to local tourism.
