Heritage Center
From fossils millions of years old to a laptop from 1994, you’ll always find something new to see at the North Dakota Heritage Center. Throughout the building
special galleries showcase the diverse collections of the State Historical Society of North Dakota. The Heritage Center is open year round except for legal holidays - we are
closed New Year’s Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
Featured Exhibits
We have a comprehensive temporary exhibits program that enhances the stories presented in our permanent galleries. Exhibits featured at the Heritage Center frequently travel to
Society managed interpretive centers around the state, so no matter where you live you can take advantage of our dynamic exhibits. Recent exhibit topics have included Abraham
Lincoln, German Emmigrants, World War II, and the Atomic Age.
