The Crazy Horse Memorial in the Black Hills is one of the world’s most ambitious mountain carvings. Dedicated to the legendary Oglala Lakota warrior Crazy Horse, this monumental project has been under construction since 1948 and, when completed, will be the largest sculpture on Earth. Even in its unfinished state, the scale is awe-inspiring—the face alone is 87 feet tall, dwarfing Mount Rushmore’s carvings.

✨ Why Visit?

Witness history in the making with ongoing carving work.

Explore the Indian Museum of North America and Native American Educational & Cultural Center.

Attend evening light shows that illuminate the mountain with powerful storytelling.
