Red Wing is a city in Goodhue County, Minnesota, United States, along the upper Mississippi River. The population was 16,459 at the 2010 census. It is the county seat of Goodhue County. Red Wing is home to the manufacturers of nationally known products: Red Wing Shoes, Riedell Ice and Roller Skates, and Red Wing Stoneware. The Cannon Valley Trail has its eastern terminus in Red Wing. Treasure Island Resort & Casino is operated by the nearby Prairie Island Indian Reservation. The National Trust for Historic Preservation placed Red Wing on its 2008 distinctive destinations list, which adds twelve communities annually nationwide. Red Wing was added for its impressive architecture and enviable natural environment.
The Minnesota Correctional Facility – Red Wing is a state juvenile correctional facility located in Red Wing, Minnesota. As of July, 2010, it housed 111 juvenile males, operating at about half of its licensed capacity. The prison also houses over 40 adult male prisoners in minimum-security, reentry housing. Built in 1889 as the Minnesota State Training School, the original Romanesque building was designed by Warren B. Dunnell, the architect of a number of historical public buildings in Minnesota, including the Minnesota State Public School for Dependent and Neglected Children, the Fergus Falls State Hospital Complex, the Minnesota Soldiers' Home Historic District, and the Pillsbury Academy Campus Historic District.
Dylan based Walls of Red Wing on the traditional Scottish folk ballad The Road and the Miles to Dundee, which he may have learned during his trip to London in early 1963, from other aspiring folk singers, such as Martin Carthy. In his narration, Dylan goes to describe a juvenile detention center in Red Wing, Minnesota. The description is hyperbolical, and goes to describe the students there as thrown in like bandits and cast off like criminals, the walls of barbed wire and the fence with electricity's sting, the guards holding their clubs like they were kings, and the supposed dungeon of the building. Despite these harrowing descriptions, Red Wing was not the impenetrable Gothic fortress (as John Bauldie calls it) portrayed in this song.
Walls of Red Wing
Singer - Joan Baez
Oh, the age of the inmates I remember quite freely
No younger than twelve, no older than seventeen
Thrown in like bandits and cast off like criminals
Inside the walls, the walls of Red Wing
From the dirty old mess hall you march to the brick wall
Too weary to talk and too tired to sing
Oh, it's all afternoon you remember your hometown
Inside the walls, the walls of Red Wing
Oh, the gates are cast iron and the walls are barbed wire
Stay far from the fence with electricity sting
And each keep your head down and stay in your number
Inside the walls, the walls of Red Wing
Oh, it's fare thee well to the deep hollow dungeon
Farewell to the boardwalk that takes you to the screen
Farewell to the minutes, they threaten you with it
Inside the walls, the walls of Red Wing
As the rain rattled heavy on the bunkhouse shingles
And the sounds in the night, they made my ears ring
Well the keys of the guards clicked the tune of the morning
Inside the walls, the walls of Red Wing
Oh, some of us will windup In St. Cloud Prison
And some of us will go on to be lawyers and things
And some of us will windup and meet you on your crossroads
From inside the walls, the walls of Red Wing
