The Village of Welcome, geographically located in the center of Martin County, was incorporated in 1890. Originally known as Lily Creek for the creek that still flows to the north, the name was later changed to Welcome in honor of Alfred M. Welcome, an Englishman who homesteaded in Manyaska Township after the Civil War.

Welcome is located in southern Minnesota just off Interstate 90, Exit 93, then head south on State Hwy 263. You will not miss us.
