Mitchell Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Out in the middle of South Dakota is this unique building called Mitchell's Corn Palace. The building is covered in many murals, inside and out, all made of corn cobs.
The World’s Only Corn Palace is Mitchell’s premier tourist attraction. Some 500,000 tourists come from around the nation each year to see the uniquely designed corn murals. The city’s first Corn Palace was built as a way to prove to the world that South Dakota had a healthy agricultural climate. Eight years before the turn of the 20th century -1892- when Mitchell, South Dakota was a small, 12-year-old city of 3,000 inhabitants – the WORLD’S ONLY CORN PALACE was established on the city’s Main Street. During its over 100 years of existence, it has become known worldwide and now attracts more than a half a million visitors annually.
🤗
The outside will be transform in 2017 using 12 different types of corn for new murals. These are the 2016 artwork.
I've always wanted to see the Corn Palace and today was the day. #bucketlist #cornPalace #southDakota

Friendly staff, took care of a clogged toilet quickly, decent breakfast, the fitness room isn't good. Old equipment, that barely works. Outside of that, clean comfortable room. Staff was great. Didn't use the pool, but looks like a good one for kids.

The unit we stayed in was very functional as it had everything.

We were at the unit ...
