Texte de Wikipédia en anglais, en attente de traduction.

The Marcell Ranger Station is a historic United States Forest Service ranger station in Marcell Township, Minnesota. It was built from 1934 to 1935 to serve as the headquarters for the Marcell District of Chippewa National Forest. It was listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 for having state-level significance in the themes of architecture, conservation, and politics/government. It was nominated for its associations with the expansion and development of Chippewa National Forest during the New Deal, for being a well-preserved example of that era's Forest Service administrative facilities, and for its fine National Park Service rustic architecture. Marcell Ranger Station was closed in 2001 and the property was converted into a vacation rental known as Marcell Lodge. A 1963 office adjacent to Minnesota State Highway 38 was turned into the Edge of the Wilderness Discovery Center, a visitor center for the Edge of the Wilderness Scenic Byway.
