Minnesota History Center

Summit Avenue in St. Paul

This is a beautiful street lined with gorgeous houses, mansions, and architecturally interesting homes. In a mere 4.5 miles on Summit Avenue, you’ll find an astounding 373 of the street’s original 440 homes. The historic area’s mansions represent a variety of architectural styles, including the longest preserved stretch of Victorian-era homes in the nation. The best thing about Saint Paul’s most iconic street is it can be explored on any given day—by foot, car, bike or guided tour. For a more hands-on informative experience, the James J. Hill House is open for public tours Wednesday-Sunday ($10) and the Minnesota Historical Society hosts 90-minute Summit Avenue Walking Tours between May and September ($14).
