The First National Bank of Mankato is a Prairie School bank building in downtown Mankato. Its exterior combines brick, limestone, and terra cotta with horizontal lines and decorative details that define its appearance.
The building was constructed in 1913 by architects Ellerbe and Rondé and served as a financial institution during Mankato's growth as a regional trade center. It played a role in shaping the downtown area during that period.
O edifício exibe elementos de design inspirados em Frank Lloyd Wright, com vitrais e ornamentação detalhada que moldam seu aspecto interior. Esses detalhes refletem o estilo que era popular no início do século XX.
The former bank building now functions as part of the Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center while preserving its exterior architectural features. Visitors can view the structure from outside and explore the style typical of that era.
The building was the target of a planned robbery attempt by Jesse James and the James-Younger Gang in 1876, making it a notable location in local history. This incident is less commonly discussed but represents an interesting chapter in Mankato's past.
