ubuque is where Iowa started. It’s where limestone bluffs meet the Mississippi River.

Where you’ll find Iowa’s longest-running farmers’ market or an up-and-coming night market. Where 17 miles of mountain bike trails can be found embedded throughout rolling hills and limestone rock. It’s where a night out is served with a side of live entertainment.

Dubuque is where the quirk of the world’s shortest, steepest railway is matched by stunning views found at the top. Where outdoor adventures can be found above, on, and below ground level. It’s where you’ll come to visit but want to stay. Dubuque is #WhereIowaStarted.

Mines of Spain is located on 1,437 acres of wooded and prairie land and is a National Historic Landmark.

DOWNTOWN

Situated between limestone bluffs and the Mississippi River, the heart of Dubuque features brick buildings, the Town Clock, delicious dining, and much more.

PORT OF DUBUQUE

Voted one of the top 10 riverfronts by USA Today, the Port was once a hub for river traffic that hauled logs up and down the mighty Mississippi.

Today, the area is known for its recreation and location along the river.

HISTORIC MILLWORK

Where revitalized warehouses span city blocks, the Historic Millwork District is one of the latest public/private efforts to celebrate Dubuque's history #WhereIowaStarted.

SCHMITT ISLAND

This island was named as a dedication to heroes like Chaplain Aloysius Schmitt.

Today, his and others' sacrifices are memorialized at the Veterans' Memorial Plaza, where granite markers denote each of America's conflicts.

EAGLE POINT

One hundred sixty-four acres overlook the Mississippi River at Eagle Point Park, which is located in the aptly named district. With views of Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Lock and Dam #11, this area is a must-see.

COLLEGE GRANDVIEW

This area is home to 4 colleges and universities! These and many other opportunities for higher education are available throughout the region.

SOUTH END

Home to the Mines of Spain Recreation Area and rolling hills, the South End District is known for its abundance of natural wonder.

WEST END

The West End of Dubuque is a bustling area with varied occupants, from some of the community's largest employers to shopping areas and parks.

TOWN CLOCK 1837 / 110'

The Town Clock was erected initially atop a downtown Main Street building in 1873 then moved to its current location in 1971. The clock, which maintains an accurate time within half a second, weighs 13 tons.

HISTORIC SHOT TOWER 1856 / 120' 5"

This structure produced lead shot and was later used as a fire watchtower for the Standard Lumber Company until a fire destroyed the tower's interior in 1911. It stands as one of only three towers left in the entire United States.

JULIEN DUBUQUE MONUMENT 1897 / 25'

Beneath this monument lies the FrenchCanadian fur trader Julien Dubuque, the first permanent settler in the Dubuque area.

The Meskwaki Tribe buried Julien Dubuque with tribal honors above the banks of Catfish Creek in what is now Mines of Spain Recreation Area.

# HIST ORY

A tale of

IOWA’S OLDEST CITY

D

ubuque is proud to be #WhereIowaStarted. Here are some things that have happened since Dubuque got its start.

LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

1785

Before becoming a formal U.S. settlement, the Meskwaki Tribe cared for the land and resources found along the Mississippi River valley. The first permanent European settler to the area was a French-Canadian fur trader named Julien Dubuque, who befriended the caretakers of this area and would go on to settle it.

1833 Under the Black Hawk Purchase Treaty in 1833, the United States Government opened the area for settlement. It came to be known as Dubuque when chartered in 1837. Iowa later became a state in 1846, 13 years after the treaty. Dubuque truly is where Iowa started!

18

120 Feet Tall

1856 Dubuque’s Shot Tower was built in 1856 to produce lead shot for the military efficiently. Molten lead poured through a grate at the top of the tower.

Then, the relatively uniform drops fell from the grate and landed in the water below, which cooled the lead into its solid state. The tower has burned (interior only), been hit by a train, repaired, and renovated to its current state.

DUBUQUE ON THE MISSISSIPPI 1788-1988

1897

1920s

Eighty-seven years after Dubuque’s death in 1810, the Julien Dubuque Monument was erected to mark his burial spot. Today, this 29 foot high, 12 foot in diameter monument is still visible to the public at the Mines of Spain. This structure resembles a medieval form and is made of Galena limestone mined from a nearby quarry.

Hotel Julien Dubuque has hosted many famous guests, but none as notorious as Chicago gangster Al Capone. When things were 'too hot to handle' in Chicago, it is rumored that Al Capone would hide out at this historic hotel.

He reportedly used a nearby underground garage to conceal his presence in Dubuque.

LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

"Is this heaven? No, it's Iowa." This phrase got its fame from the Academynominated film Field of Dreams, primarily shot in Dyersville, Iowa, in 1988 and later released in 1989. This iconic movie featured Kevin Costner, Amy Madigan, and James Earl Jones.

Recently, the movie site made history as it held the first Major League Baseball game in Iowa on August 13, 2021.

(Learn more about the movie's legacy on page 41.)

Hit the Great River Road from Dubuque to Millville, Iowa, where you will board the Cassville Car Ferry. This short ride will take you across the mighty Mississippi River to Cassville, Wisconsin. Once in Cassville, head to Nelson Dewey State Park. This area overlooks the Mississippi River from a 500 foot bluff. From Cassville, continue east on the Great River Road to Potosi. Here you will find the historic Potosi Brewing Company. Founded in 1852, the brewery today features an on-site

restaurant, the National Brewery Museum, and offers brewery tours to the public. Next, drive southeast to Dickeyville and see the famous Dickeyville Grotto.

Father Matthias Wernerus, a Catholic Priest, spent five years (from 1925-1930) building and collecting the bright-colored objects, materials, and stones set in the mortar that can still be seen today. While in Dickeyville, stop at local favorite, Hauber Brand Meats, and fuel up on locally sourced goodies for the rest of the trip.

"Because we are located in such a dense urban area, we knew from the outset that we wanted to model methods of small-scale gardening, container gardening, raised beds, growing vertically using trellises, straw bales, potato towers, and edible landscaping."

So they did just that. Gardens can be found all over the neighborhood, and passersby are encouraged to utilize the produce for their use. These gardens have become a source of ingredients for Convivium and a learning opportunity for its guests and the neighborhood. Today, Convivium offers classes around gardening, food, and nutrition.

Convivium Urban Farmstead welcomes folks to their restaurant and coffee shop throughout the week with a menu influenced by their approach to connection to community.
