Rolla, University city in Missouri, United States

Rolla spans across 12 square miles of land in the Ozark Mountains, intersected by Interstate 44 and situated near the Gasconade River.

The city emerged in 1856 as a construction site for the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway and later functioned as a Union stronghold during the Civil War.

Missouri University of Science and Technology shapes the educational landscape of Rolla with programs in engineering, technology, and scientific research.

The city maintains over 300 acres of parks containing multiple walking trails, an outdoor water park, and an indoor fitness facility for community recreation.

A precise half-scale reproduction of Stonehenge stands on the Missouri University of Science and Technology campus, constructed using modern engineering methods.
