Marquette, Port city in Upper Peninsula, Michigan, United States.
The city extends along Lake Superior with commercial districts, residential neighborhoods, and a network of parks connected by waterfront paths.
Iron ore deposits discovered near Teal Lake in 1844 transformed Marquette into a major Great Lakes shipping port by the 1850s.
Northern Michigan University maintains research centers, libraries, and an Olympic training facility that support academic and athletic programs.
The Superior Dome functions as an indoor recreation center with a 200-meter track, artificial turf field, and space for multiple sports.
Presque Isle Park contains black rocks formations where visitors observe Lake Superior waves crash against ancient volcanic stone.
