Explore Mitchell, SD
The Corn Palace's changing crop murals are only part of the story in Mitchell, SD, where art and agriculture meet in two downtown landmarks. Outpatient physical therapy is available in town. At the Carnegie Resource Center, a former library houses Corn Palace memorabilia and exhibits about local history. An Oscar Howe mural fills its dome, linking the collection to an artist who also designed Corn Palace murals. Both attractions are free to visit, making them options for repeat stops during a longer stay. For a change of pace outdoors, Lake Mitchell has trails and places to picnic. That leaves a traveler a choice between learning about the town downtown and spending an afternoon beside the water without a long excursion.
