Winona
Welcomes You
Congratulations - you have found it: the
Midwest’s most beloved and best kept
secret. From its sculpted bluffs to its mighty
river and all the places in between, Winona
has unparalleled beauty mixed with a cool
urbanity and old-world charm that proves
that yes, you really can have it all in one
enchanting place.
The gilded era of lumber barons and paddlewheelers is immortalized here in the lavish
architecture that has become a hallmark
of this picturesque river hamlet. Elaborate
cornices, grand buildings, and vibrant stained
glass beckon for a stroll through the historic
downtown today just as they did a century
ago, and all who pass this way agree that
Winona is truly a beautiful place.
For outdoor lovers, whatever your version of
relaxing is - whether it is swinging on a bench
by the lake or tackling a wicked mountain
bike trail, whether it is a tranquil hike in the
woods or whirlybirds on a wake board Winona is a paradise.

for every interest, this extraordinary array of
arts and culture leaves no doubt that Winona
is not just another pretty face.
Indeed, this community has the best of
all worlds wrapped into one delightful
destination, a remarkable city regarded as
a treasure by those who find it. Whether for

talk
of thetown
“Did you know
that Winona was
named after
Princess Winona
<sic>, daughter of
Chief Wapasha?
Did you know that
it’s the stained
glass capital of
the world? Did you
know that it’s awesome? Here’s why: Winona ranked
second in not one or two, but three of our categories:
young population, nightlife, and active life options per
capita.” – Movoto Real Estate Blog, “10 Most
Exciting Places In Minnesota,” July 2014
“A Diamond-rated
restaurant, museum
masterpieces of Picasso,
Matisse and Monet and
wine tastings are what
one would expect to find
in a large metropolitan
area, but these cultural
and culinary delights are
even more impressive
when experienced along
the scenic and historical Great River Road in Winona.”
– Minnesota Group Tour & Packaged Travel
Planner, “Wanderlust in Winona: Cultural and
culinary nuances blend deliciously along the
Mississippi River,” January 2014
“Winona prides itself on its
many cultural attractions, the Great River
Shakespeare Festival,
the Frozen River Film
Festival, the Minnesota
Marine Art Museum, the
historical architecture
and the classical music
Beethoven Festival. The
southeastern city along
the Mississippi river also
prides itself on its natural attractions and the community
is increasing ways people can enjoy these attractions...
Take the trails less traveled and you’re likely to have
them all to yourself in southeastern Minnesota – a
luxury in a crowded world.” – MN Trails Magazine,
“Winona: Open to the Outdoors,” Spring 2014
“Winona is a small town with great character, overlooking
the Mississippi River in Minnesota’s beautiful bluff country. It has a vibrant history of industry, immigration and
Native American culture, as well as an impressive stained
glass heritage, a creativity which can be seen in much of
the local architecture…Beyond the bounds of the town
itself, visitors can explore the rolling, forested terrain of
the Mississippi River Valley, which is wonderful for hiking,
cycling, camping and birdwatching.”
– Hopper.com Travel Blog, “Travel Spotlight on
Winona, Minnesota,” March 24, 2014
“Great River Road
National Scenic Byway (SOUTH): This
is one of the prettiest
parts of Minnesota,
with panoramic views
of the Mighty Mississippi on one side,
and towering bluffs
on the other as you meander through historic river towns
and by pastoral scenery.” – Minnesota Monthly,
“Scenic Summer Drives,” July 2014
“Highlighting the Upper Mississippi’s recreational, cultural,
historical and arts assets provides compelling evidence to
quell misconceptions that MSP is surrounded by miles of
flat mid-American dullness.” – MinnPost, “The Mississippi’s importance to MSP doesn’t stop as it flows on
south,” January 31, 2014

Journey
Don’t know where to begin?
Check out our sample itineraries here, or click on VisitWinona.com to view themed itineraries,
geared toward the outdoor enthusiast, arts lover, and more.
1/2 DAY:
FULL DAY:
Stop into Bloedow Bakery—“Top 50 Best Donut Shops
in the United States” by Saveur Magazine, March
2013—to sample their famous maple long johns or
more than a dozen other varieties of baked goods, all
made from the original recipes since 1924.
Stroll through downtown Winona with more than
100 National Register historic sites, specialty and
antique shops, restaurants and more.
Begin your journey with a drive to Garvin Heights
Overlook where you can take in a spectacular view:
the winding Mississippi River, trails, and lakes
surrounding the entire city of Winona.
Next, head to the Winona County History Center located
in Winona’s downtown to learn more about what put
Winona on the map: from our booming lumber industry
in the 1800s to our connections with Fastenal, Watkins
and Wincraft.
Finally, take a spin around Winona’s East Lake in a
canoe or kayak, available for a minimal fee to rent
through the city’s Park and Recreation Department.

If you have an entire day to spend in the city,
start at the Minnesota Marine Art Museum which
boasts an impressive collection of water-inspired
paintings, sculptures and more. Monet, Picasso,
Renoir and Van Gogh can all be seen right here in
Winona.
Stop into one of a half dozen coffeehouses in
the downtown area to treat yourself to a frothy
caffeinated beverage or a fresh deli sandwich.
Local ingredients are celebrated here.
Remember “The Watkins Man?” See history and
product displays of one of the country’s oldest
direct selling companies at the Watkins Heritage
Museum. Free admission allows visitors to peruse
a timeline of the J. R. Watkins Naturals Company
and even purchase current Watkins products.
Weekend:
Day 1
Begin your weekend excursion by hopping on
the Trester Trolley and taking a guided tour of
the city of Winona in a beautifully restored trolley
car. Clarence packs his tours with Winona’s rich
history, and some facts residents may not even
know.
Ready for an experience of a lifetime? Contact
Winona’s Outdoor Education & Recreation Center
located on the Winona State University campus.
Guides will lead you through the backwaters of the
Mississippi in kayaks or rock climbing up Sugar
Loaf in the summer, or snowshoeing through the
bluff side in the winter.
Garvin Heights Vineyards is the perfect place
to try more than a dozen wines produced right
here in Winona using Minnesota grapes. Their
deck offers a 7-mile view, allowing you to unwind
and relax with a bottle of wine and some cheese
and crackers.
Day 2
Start your morning with a visit to Windom Park
just off Huff Street. The fountain has a bronze
statue of Princess Wenonah, for which the city
is named, surrounded by historic, Victorian-era
homes will captivate you.
Stop in at Basilica of St. Stanislaus Kostka—one
of only two basilicas in Minnesota and 70th in
the United States—and see why the church is
such a prominent fixture in the city’s skyline.
Ornate domes are adorned with beautiful stained
glass windows dedicated to various saints with
inscriptions in Polish.
Continue your journey of Winona’s Polish
ancestry at the Polish Cultural Institute &
Museum along Second Street.
Visit Lake Park and walk along the paths, stroll
the Rose Garden and take in the view of the
historic Band Shell where concerts are still held
in the summertime. Veterans’ Park also offers
remembrance to those who have fought for
our country.
Top off your stay with a night on the town. Dine at
one of our many local eateries, offering a variety
of fare from fresh, gourmet burgers to decadent
local duck confit. Next, take in an evening
performance during the festival season or at
Winona’s college campuses. A night cap can be
found at an abundance of pubs or watering holes
in the city.
Sugar Loaf Bluff
Reaching nearly 85 feet into the sky, Sugar
Loaf is a storied symbol of Winona and known
by all as its most distinguishing landmark. The
result of quarrying in the late 1800’s, the bluff
is synonymous with an old Native American
legend that paints the rock as the cap of Dakota
Chief Wapasha. Hiking trails along its back side
offer adventure seekers a unique vantage point
to see the city. Corner of Highway 61 & 43.

Historic. Enchanting. Beautiful. From the top of its towering bluffs to the cornices of its
extravagant architecture, Winona is in a class alone when it comes to things to do and see.
Home to vibrant music and film festivals as well as world-class theater and museums, Winona
dominates in the world of arts and culture as the most wonderfully eclectic and urbane small
town in the Midwest. With an arts scene where you can see everything from Picasso, to Yo-Yo
Ma, to Tiffany Stained Glass, this is a community that radiates big-city swagger all year long.
