buechel memorial lakota museum印象

We arrived at closing time but the lady working there very graciously turned the lights back on and invited us in. It is a smallish museum and doesn't take much time to go through. It talks about the history of the Lakota people, highlights their leaders, and displays quite a bit of their original clothing. It started as the private collection of Father Buechel, a Catholic priest who worked with the Lakota. This museum also has a good selection of Lakota-made items for sale at a reasonable price. I purchased a beaded ink pen which looks very cheerful in my purse.

This small museum does a fine job introducing one to the history of the Lakota people. Interesting displays of artifacts and clothing. I was pArticularly interested in the artifacts that were pictorial descriptions of the major events that happened in a year. Staff was very helpful and informative and patient. Highly recommend traveling to the site, experiencing a reservation and learning about a part of our country that is so often neglected and invisible.
