Explore South Dakota’s Native Culture at Aktá Lakota Museum

South Dakota is rooted in Native culture. In fact, more than 71,000 individuals of Native descent call the state home — including members of the Lakota tribe, who trace their nation’s birth to the Black Hills. One of the best places to dive into the past and present of South Dakota’s tribal nations is at Aktá Lakota Museum & Cultural Center, which tells stories of the Northern Plains people through engaging exhibits and programs.
