Lake Superior Estuarium
Event Navigation
The Lake Superior Estuarium houses family-centered exhibits that tell the story of the St. Louis River Estuary, Lake Superior and the communities on their shores. It also includes a classroom, meeting space and offices. The exhibit hall includes a play area for young children, maps to orient visitors to the largest estuary on Lake Superior, and information to help anyone explore.
A estuarium is gathering place for learning and play. The term is a combination of words “estuary” and “museum.” Join staff in the exhibit hall to learn more about how fresh water, ecology and culture coexist and thrive in the Lake Superior watershed.
The estuarium is hosted by the Lake Superior National Estuarine Research Reserve and is a red building on Barker’s Island in Superior. It is open from 1:30 to 5 p.m. on the first and third Fridays and Saturdays of each month of the fall.
