High Plains Western Heritage Center
Save $1 off admission

High Plains Western Heritage Center contains a five-state regional museum founded to honor the old west pioneers and the Native Americans of North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming and Nebraska.  Western artifacts, western art, live animals and family history displays are used as a determinant of historical events.   Two ranchers, Harry Blair and Edgar Gardner, were founders of the Heritage Center. 

In the early 1970's, they were concerned that the history of the settlement of the five-state High Plains region would not be preserved.    Five categories of pioneering were chosen to be honored:  Agriculture, Mining, Transportation, Logging, and Native American lore.

The Center is located in beautiful and scenic Spearfish, South Dakota, in the Northern Black Hills, a central location to Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, Black Hills Stock Show, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, historic Deadwood, and Devil's Tower, Wyoming
