DISCOVER OUR ROOTS
St. Cloud’s history dates to the mid-1800s, shaped by river trade, railroads, and heritage that influenced central Minnesota. Located along the Mississippi River, the city developed as a regional center for commerce, education, and industry. Its historic downtown features brick storefronts and early 20th-century buildings, many restored for shops, restaurants, offices, and gathering spaces. The Stearns History Museum preserves the region’s story through exhibits on early settlement, granite quarrying, agriculture, and culture, connecting St. Cloud’s past to its present identity while honoring the community’s character and sense of place.
