Minnesota State Highway 49 was a state highway in Minnesota. It originally followed Rice Street from downtown St. Paul into the northern suburbs of the Twin Cities, shifting a northern termini between Interstate 35W and also the Lino Lakes Correctional Facility. In the late 1990s, the route was cut back to end at Interstate 694 in Shoreview and then fully removed shortly after. Guide signs at the County Road 23 exit from Interstate 35W in Lino Lakes were marked as "OLD 49" for five years after the removal, however these signs were removed around 2003.
At its greatest length, Highway 49 ran from State Highway 3 (formerly Highway 218) in Inver Grove Heights, continuing north through downtown St. Paul, and ending at the Lino Lakes Correctional Facility.
Highway 49 served as a north–south route between the communities of Inver Grove Heights, Eagan, Mendota Heights, West St. Paul, St. Paul, Maplewood, Roseville, Little Canada, Vadnais Heights, North Oaks, Shoreview, and Lino Lakes.
