Cities:
Take Interstate 94 east
to Highway 61 south (exits just past downtown St. Paul). Follow 61
south
through Hastings and Miesville into Red Wing.
Once in Red Wing:
Just as you are coming
into
downtown, turn right on West Avenue (a one-way going up the hill). West
Ave takes you past the post office, courthouse, and many of Red Wing's
historic churches. At the top of the hill, you will come to a five-way
intersection, turn right up the very steep hill (this is College
Avenue).
At the top of the hill, College will curve right and turn into Oak
Street.
Follow approximately two more blocks. The History Center is on the

side, a large red brick building. Oak Street ends at the museum
intersection.
