RESTORATION 2024
WELCOME BICYCLISTS! The Rushford Depot Visitors’ Center is open daily from early morning until early evening!
THANK YOU - Our $5,000 February campaign goal was met and exceeded, raising $8,485 from our generous members, the Rushford community, and history enthusiasts! With the $5,000 matches from Rushford State Bank, Merchant’s Bank and the Rushford Community Foundation, we added $23,485 to the building fund. We will be able to proceed with the restorations detailed HERE. Stay tuned for more updates on the Rushford Depot rehabilitation project.
This project is made possible in part by the people of Minnesota through a grant funded by an
appropriation to the Minnesota Historical Society from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural
Heritage Fund. The Historic Resources Advisory Committee (HRAC) recommended this project for
funding, and the MNHS Executive Council approved their recommendation.
