Review:

The Crazy Horse Memorial features a monument blasted and carved into a monstrous rock formation.

The project was initiated by woodworker and sculpture, Korczak Ziolkowski, who worked on behalf of Lakota chiefs to design the monument which bears the likeness of Crazy Horse, a Native American war hero.

The on-site Indian Museum of North America is housed within a large pine compound, which was also built by Ziokowski and his family. An immense collection of artifacts and art represent the unique cultures and histories of more than 300 Native Nations. Native American artists take up residency at the complex during summer months to create and share their gifts. Visitors share in hands-on activities, storytelling, flute playing, song, and dance.
