About Duluth, Minnesota

History, adventure, and hearty living are the robust preferences for residents of Duluth, MN. Fur traders, fishermen, distant voyagers, and trading stations are reminiscent of its beginnings. Positioned at the westernmost tip of sparkling blue Lake Superior, Duluth offers visitors an opportunity to enjoy nature. There are 23 beautiful parks, a scenic North Shore drive and bird watching at Hawk Ridge.

Historical shipwrecks in the waters include the remains of wharves, docks, and refuse sites associated with fur trading stations, fishing settlements, lumber and mining camps, and vessel salvage activities. They tell much about early inhabitants of Lake Superior.

The fur trade, around in the early 1800’s, saw much activity between the Cree, Dakota, Assiniboine, Ojibwe and the French, British, and Americans.
