Laclede
County, located in the
beautiful Ozark Mountains,
was established in 1849.
Carved from portions of
Camden, Pulaski, and Wright
counties, it was named in
honor of Pierre Laclede, the
founder of St. Louis. The
county’s diverse landscape
features everything from
rolling farmlands and
pastures to rugged, forested
hills. Positioned
approximately 155 miles
southwest of St. Louis via
I-44, it is a key part of
the 24 counties that make up
Southwest Missouri. The land
was originally home to
Wyota, an old Osage village
that was abandoned by Native
Americans as settlers moved
into the area. Laclede
County borders Webster and
Wright counties to the
south, Dallas County to the
west, Camden County to the
north, and Pulaski and Texas
counties to the east. For
more info about Laclede
County, please check About
and History under Resources.
