Battle Creek is a stream in Minnesota. It rises in Battle Creek Lake in Woodbury, passing through residential Maplewood and St. Paul before emptying into the Mississippi River via Pigs Eye Lake. It is followed for much of its length by walking paths. It is the eponym for the Battle Creek neighborhood of Saint Paul.
Battle Creek was named in commemoration of an 1842 attack between Ojibwe warriors and Little Crow's band of Dakota people in the village of Kaposia.[1]
