MN Ghost Towns Within 90 Minutes of St. Cloud
A beloved American holiday is coming up this weekend. If you're using it as an excuse to take some vacation, might we suggest a fun little road trip? Did you know that Minnesota is home to several ghost towns? They're little towns that were once promising, thriving towns. For whatever reason, overtime they became deserted with few to no residents.
Some of these old towns still sport old signage, abandoned buildings, old churches, the remains of old structures and more. They're really fun to photograph and explore. They're also a little creepy when you think about the life that once was very prominent. Check out these 8 Minnesota ghost towns that are within 90 minutes from St. Cloud.
