Dacotah Prairie Museum

The Dacotah Prairie Museum in Aberdeen is a look at the history of Brown County and how westward expansion of the U.S. formed this region of South Dakota, culturally and economically. Explore the history of the railroad and pioneer settlers; a children's exhibit allows families to experience frontier life; the Hatterscheidt Wildlife Gallery is an exciting departure into Africa, Asia and North America. Take home a memento from our gift shop. We're open 10 a.m.-5 p.m., Tuesday-Friday, and 11 a.m.-4 p.m., Saturday. Admission is free.
