The Mead Museum provides visitors with an authentic historical experience in a beautiful 1909 building.  3 floors of exhibits to explore: an interactive Children's Transportation Museum, a Lewis & Clark exhibit – featuring a rare 4" Jefferson Peace Medal - as well as artifacts from the history of the Yankton State Hospital and Yankton College. Also, the ever-evolving exterior of Heritage Park will bring history to life through buildings such as the 1906 Gunderson schoolhouse, a Great Northern Railroad Depot, and more. Temporary exhibits highlighting Dakota Territory and Yankton County history change each summer.
