What makes it iconic

  • Limestone exterior using Mankato-Kasota stone, native to Minnesota — distinct golden-tan color.
  • Built on a tight 8.5-acre downtown site — one of the smallest footprints in MLB.
  • 'Minnie and Paul' shaking hands across the river — an animated outfield logo from the Twins' original mascot artwork.
  • Replaced the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome (1982–2009), ending 28 years of indoor baseball in Minnesota.

Notable moments

  • Outdoor baseball returns to Minnesota — first opening day in 1982 had it; nothing since the Metrodome.
  • Joe Mauer's plaque-bound career ending in 2018 — a hometown legend who refused trades to leave.
  • The 2014 All-Star Game — Mike Trout's first MVP performance.
  • The 2023 Wild Card sweep of Toronto — Minnesota's first playoff series win in 21 years.

Timeline

  1. 2010

  2. 2014

    All-Star Game

    Minnesota hosted the All-Star Game; Mike Trout was MVP. The park's design was widely praised in its first major national showcase.

  3. 2018

    Mauer's farewell

    Joe Mauer retired after 15 seasons with the Twins. His final game featured him catching the final pitch — one inning — in tribute.

    Playoff drought ends

    The Twins ended an 18-game postseason losing streak by sweeping Toronto in the AL Wild Card series — their first October series win in 21 years.
