Stroll with Jeff and Sarah as History Hunters highlights a gorgeous Minnesota town, Stillwater, which is where the state was birthed. The town is along the scenic St. Croix River which divides Minnesota from Wisconsin.

During our May 2024 visit we discovered much history of this town. We'll talk about the Minnesota Territorial Prison in Stillwater that housed the legendary Younger gang of bank robbers, one of whom died there.
