Red Wing Partners with Prairie Island Indian Community on Improvements at He Mni Can Park

The City of Red Wing recently completed a major renovation of He Mni Can/Barn Bluff Park. Supported by Greater Minnesota Legacy funds, the City worked with area Native American tribes, particularly the Prairie Island Indian Community,  to recognize, honor and protect the incredible cultural resources on the site.

​A new video highlighting the results of the project can be found HERE.

The Greater Minnesota Regional Parks and Trails Commission is supportive of the great collaborations between local partners and Native American communities throughout the regional system. Working together, these partnerships provide opportunities for all residents and visitors to enjoy the outdoors and protect the history that makes our communities unique.  We encourage all of our system partners to explore similar possibilities by contacting their local tribal representatives or contacting us for assistance!
