corn palace/doll factory by pinkfuzzygurl72

the corn building is nice on outside, but typical building inside. you can buy popcorn tho. i didnt go to doll museum but its across the street from corn palce, so its worth stopping in the town. gas prices are high here!!

Ok, I could be biased.... by Dawn

Since I grew up here! I miss it! I miss it a lot. I know it’s probably not much to look at to an outsider, but to me, it was great! Everyone knew everyone. The crime rate was low, and the cost of living was great! If it weren’t for the cold winters & the snow, I would still be there! There actually are some interesting places to see if you go there. The corn palace, the doll museum, the Indian Village, the Oscar Howe Art Museum, just to name a few!

The Corn Palace. See It! by jlidbeck

It’s more than a kitsch roadside attraction. The people of Mitchell have been decorating city hall with dried corncob murals annually for over a century—think of it: somber 1899 farmers designing such an extravagant shrine to produce.

The gift shop inside is a disappointment, though. Mostly it’s the same tourist crap you could buy anywhere with a “Corn Palace Mitchell S.D.” stamp applied to it. But that’s not the point.

The point is, this is America. This is our culture. This is a place where you can touch history. So it’s important that you visit (and sign a guestbook—there’s one for each state). I’ve been here many times over the years and am always rewarded by an inexplicable feeling of awe and queasy patriotism.
