Visit Winona, Minnesota: Historic Island City
A visitor's introduction to Winona, Minnesota, historic island city. Nestled in the tree-covered limestone bluffs of the Mississippi River, Winona is home to a rich lumber and river traffic history, architecturally significant buildings, meticulously maintained Victorian homes, and more than 100 sites on the National Register in the Winona area, many of which are free and open to the public.

The Natural Beauty of Winona, MN
Our hometown of Winona , MN has a rich history dating back to the 1800s but it is her natural beauty that visitors fall in love with and the people of Winona enjoy daily. It is nestled between the bluffs of Minnesota and Wisconsin, the Mississippi River borders her on one side and Lake Winona hugs the city on the other. It has an abundance of wildlife such as the American Bald Eagle, a variety of owls, deer, fox, and a river teeming with all kinds of variety of fish.
Please check out the other videos I have posted about this beautiful, sleepy river city and come back and visit in the future as I will be creating more videos relative to Winona, MN. Almost forgot to add that the neighboring towns and cities offer their own distinct flavor of life in Minnesota and Wisconsin (there, I said it even though I'm a devout Viking fan. lol)
This has been a labor of love that has been well worth the 100+ hours I spent researching, assembling, editing and producing the video. If you've never done such a task I highly recommend it, it does the soul well.
Hopefully you will like my video and give it a thumbs up, comment below and share.
