The Stillwater Historic Lift Bridge is a must-see point of interest in the Minnesota-Wisconsin St. Croix valley. Now closed to vehicular traffic, the lift bridge still operates during boating seasons and one can still marvel at the ingenuity of engineering from bygone days. The blast of the single-pitched marine horn from the bridge operator's cabin announces the spectacle as an entire span of the bridge rises to allow paddlewheel excursion boats and other pleasure craft to navigate up and down the St. Croix river. Visit the various restaurants, coffeehouses, wine bars, brewery, winerery or antique and specialty shops on Stillwater's quaint Main Street, then stroll over to the riverside Lowell Park to witness a moving moment of history.
