WELCOME TO THE SOUTH DAKOTA
MUSEUM / CULTURAL CENTER
LARGEST IN THE STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA |
|
South Dakota Cultural Heritage Center brings history
alive through exhibits, educational programming and research
services. You'll experience everything from early American Indian
cultures to the arrival of white settlers, river boats and
railroads. Walk through a sod house and hear stories told by a
pioneer woman, see a Lakota teepee up close and witness the workings of a
replica gold mining operation.
Of particular importance is the museum's collection of
1,339 Native American objects. The collection, which focuses on the Sioux
Indians, is noteworthy for both its quality and its documentation.
