The St. Paul Civic Center was an indoor arena located in Saint Paul, Minnesota.

The arena opened on January 1, 1973 with a WHA Hockey game. Minnesota Fighting Saints vs Houston Aeros in a 4-4 overtime tie.

The Civic Center was the home of both iterations of the Minnesota Fighting Saints of the WHA - the first from 1973 to 1976 and the second from 1976 to 1977.

The Minnesota Moose of the International Hockey League / IHL also played there for 2 seasons.

The arena was unique in North America in that the Hockey dasher boards were made of clear acrylic glass from the shelf all the way down to the ice. This was because the arena's seating configuration was round, and the closest seats between the blue lines were not flush against the boards.

The St. Paul Civic Center was closed April 9, 1998 and demolished in May 1998.
