Located in Spearfish, South Dakota, the more than 20,000-square-foot Heritage Center honors the Old West pioneers and American Indians of North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Montana through six categories of Western history. During your visit, you will be immersed in the rich history of the high plains life through authentic displays and artifacts.

Although you can get through in an hour, to really experience everything the museum has to offer, two hours is recommended. We offer an affordable family-friendly experience with indoor and outdoor attractions for all ages!
