Welcome
Welcome to the Minnesota Governor's Residence. Located at 1006 Summit Avenue in St. Paul's historic Summit Avenue neighborhood, the Residence is one of the many stately houses in the area originally built for families that today are a part of the fabric of Minnesota history. Some of these houses - including the James J. Hill House and the Governor's Residence - are open for public tours.
The Gardens
The Residence gardens show a diversity of annual and perennial flowers, shrubs and trees.
The Children's Garden, established in 1993, serves as a lasting symbol of the state's commitment to all children.
