New Brighton Area Historical Society

The New Brighton Area Historical Society (NBAHS) was founded in 1980 in New Brighton, Minnesota. The Society logo at the left shows, top, clockwise, the Exchange Hotel in 1891, built to accommodate the cattlemen coming to the stockyards;  the Bulwer Junction Depot, now the New Brighton History Center; the stockyards at the turn of the century; and the railroad, all of which helped put New Brighton on the map.
