Worthington & Sioux Falls Freight Depot, 106 East Fletcher St Luverne, Rock County, MN
The construction of the Worthington and Sioux Falls Railway was a critical factor in the settlement and early commerce and industry of southwestern Minnesota. The original 1876 depot in Luverne was, until its demolition in 1992, the only structure known to exist which physically represented the initial railroad construction era in Rock County and the Worthington and Sioux Falls Railway Company. The Luverne depot also may have been the oldest surviving railroad depot in Minnesota.
