This article lists the legislative sessions of the Minnesota Legislature, the bicameral governing body of the U.S. state of Minnesota, which is composed of the Minnesota House of Representatives and the Minnesota Senate. The legislature has convened many times since statehood became effective on May 11, 1858. It continues to operate under the Minnesota State Constitution of 1858. Sessions are numbered consecutively, with each biennium marked by a new legislature. The list provides an overview of each session, including the dates they were convened and adjourned and the preceding elections. The legislature meets at the Minnesota State Capitol in Saint Paul.
Prior to statehood, there were 8 territorial legislatures (1849 to 1857).
