Review & FAQ:

Constructed in the year 1853, the Warden's House Museum was used as the home of the warden of the Minnesota Territorial Prison. Throughout its history, thirteen wardens used the house as their residence until the prison was moved in 1914. The house was sold to the Washington County Historical Society in 1941, and it was opened to the public in June of the same year as a museum. Several rooms contain exhibits showcasing different elements of the history of Washington County, including the Old Stillwater Prison, the Civil War, and the lumber industry. Other rooms reflect those found in an upper middle class home.
