Postcard moments from Stillwater, MN 💌
As one of Minnesota’s oldest towns, visiting Stillwater felt, at times, like taking a step back in time to its old lumber days. The town has preserved so much of its historic character and charm that you can’t help but feel as if you’re entering a classic Americana postcard.
From its old-world Victorian mansions, brick storefronts, vintage ice cream parlors, and iconic Lift Bridge (one of the last remaining of its kind), Stillwater offers you a window into the lives and stories of those who once lived here hundreds of years ago.
This carousel series was inspired by that feeling of nostalgia and remnants of a bygone era ✨

🚃 The Stillwater Trolley, which captures the essence of simpler times and offers a glimpse of what local travel might have felt like before the rise of cars and modern transportation
