 The
Great Northern Depot is of
historical significance since it was
the last depot built by "empire
builder" James J. Hill. It has been
on the National Register of Historic
Places since 1988. Built in 1912,
the arched framework of the Depot
windows represents a neo-classic
design. The depot is also
associated with two statewide
historical events: Agricultural
Development and Railroad
construction and the Northern
Minnesota Lumbering era, all of
which took place between 1870 and
1920. The depot represents a broad
diversity of people who lived and
continue to live in this area. The
depot has been restored to house the
Beltrami County History Center , a
full-service history center which
includes a three gallery museum,
research library, public archives,
gift shop and meeting room Open Wed
