Stillwater

Stillwater is best known within Minnesota for the Stillwater Lift Bridge, a 1931 vertical-lift crossing over the St. Croix River. The bridge now carries walkers and cyclists between Minnesota and Wisconsin, while the river forms part of the Saint Croix National Scenic Riverway. Main Street follows the Minnesota bank through a downtown shaped by the nineteenth-century lumber trade, with brick commercial buildings and steep hillside streets still defining its character. Stillwater also hosted Minnesota’s 1848 territorial convention, an early step toward statehood. Move on to other webcams in Minnesota to compare landscapes and settings around the St. Croix River.
