Schools and Colleges of Winona, Minnesota
Vintage Scenes of Winona, Minnesota
Collected by Chris Miller
Winona is also a college town. Originally, there were three
colleges:
Winona State College (now Winona State University),
the College of St. Teresa (closed recently),
and St. Mary's College.

Winona State Teachers' College
Winona State Teachers' College
St. Mary's College
St. Mary's Hall, College of St. Teresa The oldest building on the St.
Teresa campus was demolished in the 1990s and would have been standing
in the late 19th century.
The following information courtesy of "sadsack" on Winonanet:
The old St. Teresa campus is now a part of Cotter High School. Also, some
of the dorm rooms house Winona State University students, so the purpose
of the property hasn't changed in the last 110 years ~ it's still used
for education.
I think the building I remember being torn down was Cotter Hall, facing
Cummings Street between Broadway and Wabasha streets, which was built
in 1894, the same year the Seminary opened.
St. Mary's Hall, located on Wabasha between Cummings & Vila Street which
is the large building pictured on old postcards, was torn down in 1961
after the construction of the Roger Bacon Center. There were two square
blocks of green space for many years, until the Recreation Center was
built there.
