MILL DISTRICT.   Calling all bread-lovers and Minneapolis history museum enthusiasts! Come admire the fuel behind the Twin Cities' early prosperity at this Minneapolis museum. Located in the historic St. Anthony Falls District, Mill City Museum showcases the experience of pre-WWI era workers at this eight-story flour mill. Exhibits, hands-on activities and self-guided scavenger hunts teach all ages about how the “Flouring Capital of the World” once operated. The Washburn A Mill peaked at 12 million loaves a day before closing in 1965.   (© 10Best)
