The holdup occurred shortly before noon Thursday at the Lake Region Bank in Sunburg, according to the Kandiyohi County Sheriff's Office.
The masked man left with an undisclosed amount of cash, and no arrests have been announced.
In a bank surveillance photo, he appeared to be wearing multiple layers of clothing, as well as a camouflage hat and a black mask.
The Sheriff's Office added that a "suspicious vehicle" was seen in the area. It was described as a dark-colored van, possibly blue.
Anyone with information about the heist is urged to contact the Sheriff's Office at 1-320-214-6700, extension 3315.
