As Belle Fourche, South Dakota holds the distinction of being "The Center of the Nation," the Center of the Nation Monument is also on the grounds of our facility. It is open to visitation 24-7, all year long and is ringed with "The Avenue of Flags," which includes all 50 state flags, as well as the national flags of the United States and Canada. It's a dramatic image that makes for a wonderful photo op. Established in 1955. The museum started in 1955 when Mrs. Williams of Hammond, MT donated a western collection & $1000. Mr. Williams' collection was for his own enjoyment & the enjoyment of his friends. Mrs. Williams realized the value of her late husband's collection & she contacted several Belle Fourche businessmen & community leaders in the early 1950's. On June 15, 1955, a group of interested parties held their first official meeting toward the establishment of the museum. The non-profit Tri-State Memorial Museum formed. At the same time, the city of Belle Fourche had bought the Bowles House to make it the city's library & museum. The beautiful 3story home on the east end of State Street never was used. The city sold the property & used that money to build a cinder-block building. There have been 2 additions to the original building, in 1964 & again in 1972. The current museum building was opened in 2004, in a complex that includes the Center of the Nation Visitor Center.
