 Created to preserve the historical and cultural legacy of the state’s early Sioux inhabitants and the first waves of European settlers. The facility 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. 
 

Admission is charged; kids under 18 are admitted free.

Location: 900 Governors Drive, Pierre, SD 57501.

    I would like to order the First Naturalization papers for my grandfather, Carl Lindell who lived in Lawrence County, South Dakota.

    Lindell, Carl, Lawrence County, Date of Intent - 11/02/1880 - from Sweden - Location - 547, Page - 100

    Please advise me of the cost of obtaining a copy of this paper. I ordered his second paper information some time ago but did not realize there was evena first paper then.

    I have forwarded your request on to the Center and asked them to contact you.

Got something to say?
