About this postcard

A view of Central Park in Winona, Minnesota, with a circular fountain basin around a statue-topped monument, large shade trees, and two figures resting on a bench at the left edge of the pool. Winona, on the Mississippi River in southeastern Minnesota, was a lumber and grain milling center in the early 1900s. Central Park gave the downtown a green space with fountains and monuments.
