History[edit]
Early history of this site can be found at the link to follow http://www.archive.org/details/historyoftrempea00curt and the book part of the Library of congress non-copy written collections available in digital format on the internet. The institution opened in January of 1900 and the book covers the history of Trempealeau county until 1914. The Trempealeau County Health Care Center stands on the former site of this facility.
In 2016 a new 123,000-square-foot building opened and will continue its licensing as a 112-bed institution for mental disease and 34-bed nursing home facility.
