A very photogenic historic building in downtown St. Paul. Very European in style and airy on the inside. Not the best place to have music on the main floor as acoustics are horrible, otherwise there are very excellent site lines heading up to multiple layers of surrounding balcony.Except that restrooms aren't signed very well on the main floor.

A historic building in st Paul. Built in 1902. It seems to be a post office and custom house. It is considered Romanesque Revival architecture. They have a travel center inside as well as exhibits. There's a hit shop inside and some galleries. I think there are also performances here and weddings. You can get tours. Outside is a pretty park called a rice Park. This is in the historic downtown of Paul, and there are lots of buses that take you there. Busy area

We came here for one of the many programs they hold but unfortunately I learned it was cancelled when we arrived. The place is a historical site where things such as cultural and social gatherings are held. It's been a site for rallies of different political issues, etc. Today it holds different programs like the one we were to attend which was a series exploring the cultures of different countries around the world by presenting information and vendor food booths as well as other programming I wasn't able to see (will have to come back! :(The buildings also been used as a site for naturalization and other government activities. Recently restored it's beautiful inside and outside. The architecture and construction is breathtaking....

This is the first federal buildings in St. Paul. It's free to enter and have different exhibits and offices. We got to learn about the history of the building, the importance of some of the rooms and the timeline of it. Some of the court rooms are just beautiful. It's free to enter, and your could spend hours there if your wanted to.

I actually went there because a friend had a wedding there it was so big and beautiful. The building is old and you can tell from the art the architecture is done with much love. I tried taking some pictures but it just doesn't do it any justice to real life.

I was early for a meeting near Rice Park so I wandered into the Landmark Center. It looked like they were setting up for an event, so I just admired from the outer entrance where Anita's Cafe is. I've been here so many times for so many different events and it's really one of the most gorgeous buildings in Minnesota. It's quite a varied cultural center and there's always something going on, whether it's casual live music, Indian dance, Filipino Day, Irish Festival, etc. My high school had our senior prom here and it was a lot of fun for that too.I was wondering how old the building was so I checked out the history page on their website and here's the deal. It was born in 1902 and slowly mistreated by the government/post office housed inside (i.e. "they painted over the marble walls with #102 government green, cut down wainscoting, covered the maple floors with brown linoleum, covered the marble mosaic with tile, replaced the antique metal lights with fluorescents, covered the skylight with asbestos, roofed/painted over stained glass"). Then in the '70s, it was saved from being torn down and finally restored. This actually made me physically ill to read that someone had abused a building so incredibly wonderful. PHYSICALLY ILL. Often I think the 1950s-1970s should be ashamed of themselves when it comes to architecture (like, the decades as a whole). Anyway, back to the Landmark Center. Thank goodness someone came to the rescue and restored it back to what it is today---such an important cultural center, museum and literal landmark. It's hard to imagine our city without it.P.S. In my wedding venue search, it's starting to become more appealing than ever since it's large enough for our enormous families and they allow open catering. We'll see though...

Such a beautiful building in downtown St. Paul. I hadn't been since my HS prom which was awhile ago. We were out enjoying the beautiful weather on Saturday and happened to wander in. There wasn't a whole lot going on. The staff looked to be setting up for an event.Wandered upstairs to use the restrooms which were nice and clean and thankfully open.Looked at the Living La Vida: Mexican-Americans in Ramsey County exhibit which reminded us a bit of the scene from Pee Wees Big Adventure when he goes to the Alamo looking for his bike sans the chipper tour guide.Beautiful place and Im sure a great place to have a wedding reception or hold a prom.

We felt we were in good hands from the moment of our first visit! Hilari and Grace were a great team to walk us through planning our reception at the beautiful Landmark Center St. Paul. Their information booklet was so helpful and had great information, yet they happily and patiently answered many detail questions along the way. They helped us find just the right spots for all of our special touches, creating an amazing flow for an incredible celebration. Having such beautiful spaces for the bride and groom and their attendants to get ready truly made us all feel like royalty for a day. Thank you for sharing your planning expertise with us to make our experience feel so seamless. You made all the pieces come together with ease!Wow! Talk about great service, knowledgeable experience, and patience with questions, all rolled into one! Troy helped us figure out just what we needed to give our guests an enjoyable experience while matching the tone of our wedding celebration. He walked us through our event and let us know what would be important. There was a wide variety of offerings, including tasty signature drinks. We were so grateful for Troy's excellent help planning our event and his staff's amazing service!

Sketched the Romanian display and peppered the Romainian Docent with lots of questions. A wonderful learning and creative experience. Always something to do at the Landmark!

My daughter had her wedding at the Landmark Center June 11, 2022. It was exquisite! The staff were absolutely amazing - friendly, thoughtful, helpful, kind! They even signed the wedding guest book. The bartenders were great - never had a line at the bar. The staff managed coordination with all the other vendors, and the cost was well within budget and we could choose our own caterer (recommend St. Paul Hotel). Thank you for making this such an wonderful experience for all of us!
