What Happened to Fountain Cave —The Real Birthplace of St. Paul?
Author: Greg Brick
A detailed account by a noted speleologist and urban geologist of his research on Fountain Cave in St. Paul, which was first reported by Major Stephen Long in 1817. The mouth of Fountain Cave was sealed off with the construction of Shepard Road in 1960 and all that can be seen today at the site of the cave on the Mississippi is a historical marker.
