Such a lovely museum. Loved the movie in the beginning. My only critic would be I wish there was more movies of stories that are important to the Dakota people. I wanted more after the Story of Creation. Definitely worth the drive!

I visited this museum with an older gentleman Indo primary care for and was absolutely amazed from the outside of the building throughout the whole exhibit! I am only giving it 4 stars instead of five as some of the exhibit was at a height that when in a wheelchair you would not be able to see it. If a few of the things that are nailed down were at an angle it would work so much better. The exhibit itself and the items contained within it were just fantastically done. You were encouraged to touch and feel everything. There was a family cabin you could go in and lay on the beds, a real tepee you could go inside and sit and listen to different stories, a real hollowed out tree trunk used as a canoe found in lake minnetonka. The exhibits were plentiful! It was sad to understand how land was taken and swindled from the native Americans and the information from the wars. I learned so much! I would definitely go back to read and listen to even more of what they had available. Dont forget to stop in the museum shop as the local art and items are well worth the stop! I bought a picture and so did the person I care for. You can not taken pictures in the actual exhibit so the photos I have here are of the outer building, the entrance to the exhibit and shop. Go visit, the cost is free for over 65 and for me it was only $7.95!!

It was a wonderful exhibit. It was nice to give my son some idea of the local history and understanding of how Native Americans actually lived.

Its a cute little museum with a small gift shop not much for crafts or kids, but lots of books. As far as the crafts I do miss first American little store that used to have all kinds of Crafts & and stickers I they also had statues in knick knacks. Unfortunately I will now have to go to another place for my crafting Essentials

Incredible. Amazing vision so well done. Everything from the grounded building, materials, landscaping nestled into the land to the breathtaking interactive culture education wing! It exceeds the highest expectations. How lucky we are and what a huge contribution to society at large, one that has much work to do and gratitude to express.
