Geographic Center of the Nation Monument
While the actual center of the nation is located on private property in the middle of a field, the Geographic Center of the Nation Monument is located in Belle Fourche, South Dakota. The 21 foot diameter monument is located near the Center of the Nation Visitor’s Center, Johnny Spaulding’s Cabin, and the Tri-State Museum. It is accessible year-round, free, and the actual monument is open every day. There is also a couple of trails near the monument that take you around the town of Belle Fourche if you are up for a hike.
Neat old tractor.
You can take a nice walk near the river and through town for a couple of miles if you choose to.
Johnny Spaulding’s Cabin. Pretty neat.
The cabin was built in 1876.
The flags of the United States.
