History

A post office called Remer has been in operation since 1904.[5] The city was named for its first postmaster, William P. Remer.[6]

Remer is also the location of the Thunder Lake Lodge, where Al Capone stayed on his vacations to Minnesota. The room he stayed in was named McCleary Cabin, which was originally built in 1912.[7] In 2009, a motion-activated camera captured a picture of what some consider Bigfoot in an area near Remer.[8]

Late in World War II, a logging camp manned by prisoners of war was at the site of an old CCC camp near Remer.[9]

Up until 1959, the Soo Line provided passenger rail service at Remer station.

The town claims to have had Bigfoot sightings since the late 1800s, and holds a Bigfoot Days celebration each summer. The All Gas No Brakes series released a video documenting the 2020 festival.
