Winona: Bluff City on the Mississippi
Winona sits on the Mississippi River in southeastern Minnesota, hemmed between the river and 500-foot limestone bluffs. The city was a lumber boomtown in the 1850s and 1860s, when logs floated down from the northern pine forests were milled and shipped. Sugar Loaf, a prominent bluff above the city, is a local landmark visible from miles along the river valley.
Three colleges operate in Winona: Winona State University, Saint Mary's University of Minnesota, and Minnesota State College Southeast. The student population gives the city a younger demographic than most similarly sized river towns. Winona's downtown retains 19th-century commercial architecture.
The surrounding bluff country is some of the most dramatic terrain in Minnesota, cut by streams that flow into the Mississippi. Garvin Heights overlook provides panoramic views of the river valley. Latsch Island, in the Mississippi, is a city park with boat access and swimming.
