Attractions

Welcome to the online home of the Museum of Geology! We are located in the heart of the Black Hills, in Rapid City South Dakota, on the campus of the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology. The Museum offers world-class displays of rare real fossils and minerals, as well as educational tours and family events, always free to the public. Here, you'll find all the information you need to plan a visit for yourself, your family, or a group of any size or need! If you cannot visit us in person, our website offers a look at our displays, special content, and educational resources about geology and paleontology.
