Nicollet Tower & Interpretive Center

Ascend Nicollet Tower to witness a stunning panorama spanning three states, paying homage to Joseph N. Nicollet, the French cartographer renowned for exploring the Coteau Des Prairies in the 1830s. At the Nicollet Interpretive Center, immerse yourself in the artistic creations of John S. Wilson and marvel at Nicollet's monumental map. Engage with a compelling video presentation that vividly recounts Nicollet's expedition and offers insights into the rich culture of the Dakota tribes. (Submitted by Travis Flasch)
