This official Minnesota Historical Marker is posted near the spot of the Dustin Massacre, where four early settlers were killed by Native Americans in 1863. There was a small monument built on this site, which is now a wayside rest area with picnic tables and shelters, and The Wright County Historical Society updated it in 1963 with the current marker.
Marker Type:: Roadside
