“Historic” Veterans Park honors the service and sacrifice of American Veterans of all eras and wars since the American Civil War, including a couple Revolutionary War Veterans. Veterans Park originated with the gifting of land to the City of North St. Paul by Founder Henry Castle, also a “Historic” Minnesota figure and combat wounded Civil War Veteran.
Originally called “Central Park” the name evolved to “Cannon Park” before being christened “Veterans Park” in 2015, this plot of land is the reliquary of the names and stories of 1471 Veterans etched on red clay Memorial Pavers, of the 161 World War One Veterans on a Bronze Roll of Honor and of the 36 local Veterans who paid the ultimate price for Freedom listed on the Memorial Wall.
On 1 April 2026, Veterans Park Committee members raised the “Historical” Minnesota Flag to fly over all these Patriots, the majority having served our Nation under that “Historic” state banner since 1893.”
