Some places earn their silence — and Quinn is one of them. John Michael Quinn (born December 17, 1945) was named as the eighth bishop of the former Diocese of Winona in Minnesota in 2008.
The story of Quinn
Michigan's ghost towns are copper and iron towns of the Upper Peninsula, plus lumber camps the pine barons abandoned.
John Michael Quinn (born December 17, 1945) was named as the eighth bishop of the former Diocese of Winona in Minnesota in 2008. From 2018 until his retirement in 2022, Quinn served as bishop of the Diocese of Winona–Rochester. Quinn previously served as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Detroit in Michigan from 2003 to 2008.
What you'll find today
The on-the-ground condition of Quinn is unverified — it's listed here with unknown status. That could mean standing buildings, or an empty field. Go prepared for either, and consider sharing what you find so the record improves.
Nobody has confirmed the access situation, so treat any visit as reconnaissance: verify land ownership first, and be ready to admire from the road.
Getting there
Here's the honest truth: access to Quinn is unverified. We couldn't confirm whether the site sits on public land, private property, or something in between — so verify land ownership and local rules before visiting, and respect private property at all times.
Good to know
Ghost-town etiquette is simple: take only photographs. Removing artifacts is illegal on public lands and disrespectful everywhere else — and on federal land it can be a serious offense.
