The Minden Wool Warehouse is a historic warehouse building located at 1615 Railroad Avenue in Minden, Nevada. Built in 1915, the warehouse was designed by prominent Nevada architect Frederic Joseph DeLongchamps. DeLongchamps designed the building for H. F. Dangberg, the founder of Minden, and the warehouse served as the headquarters for Dangberg's Dangberg Land and Livestock Company.[2] Carson Valley farmers used the warehouse to store wool and potatoes before they were shipped out of Minden. The warehouse was later rented to the Minden Flour Company and a local creamery; it is now used as an office building by the Bently Nevada Corporation.[3]

The warehouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 6, 1986.[1]
