Hill-Annex Mine State Park is a significant location in Minnesota, United States. The park is dedicated to interpreting the open-pit mining heritage of the Mesabi Range. It provides a unique opportunity for visitors to learn about the history and impact of mining in the region.

The park is home to several historic buildings, including an office building, a laboratory, a maintenance shop, a truck repair shop, a wooden water tower, and a community club.
