Dakota’s Original 1880 Town – Murdo, South Dakota Area. Dakota’s Original 1880 Town Walk down Main Street of this 1880 town and explore more than 30 buildings authentically furnished with thousands of relics. Although built for a movie set, it was never used by them at that time. It was given to a local man in payment for the antiques he loaned to the set.
While at the 1880 town, you can also view memorabilia from the late Casey Tibbs, a champion rodeo bronc rider, and many props that were used in filming the movie "Dances with Wolves".
Costumes of this era are available for rent so you will "fit" into the setting.
There is entertainment with music of the times to entertain you in the Saloon.
Location: 22 miles west of Murdo, South Dakota just off Interstate 90 at exit 170.
