Iowa Highway 139 (Iowa 139) is an 11-mile-long (18 km) highway in northeastern Iowa. It begins at Iowa 9 east of Cresco and ends at the Minnesota state line, where it continues northward as Minnesota State Highway 139. It crosses the Upper Iowa River near Kendallville. The roadway has been a part of the state's primary highway system since its inception in 1920; however, it has only been known as Iowa 139 since 1930. From 1935 to 1980, the highway extended south to Protivin.
