Tour the Sibley Site

Visit the oldest Euro-American settlement in Minnesota where three distinctive limestone buildings grace the Minnesota River bluff across from Fort Snelling. These buildings mark the American Fur Company’s control over the region’s Dakota trade between 1825 and 1853, when Mendota was a major center of the region’s fur trade. The tour will briefly explore a variety of topics that range from Native American history, to the fur trade and Minnesota’s pioneering life through the houses and people that lived on the site. Parking can be anywhere along the street in front of the house, or on the side (D Street). We will start on the grounds with everyone for the beginning at Dupuis, then drive down to the bottom of the hill and connect with the group there for the remaining buildings / tour.
