The South Dakota Cultural Heritage Center in Pierre, South Dakota is the headquarters of the South Dakota State Historical Society. Opened in 1989, the center houses the State Historical Society’s administrative, historic preservation, and research and publishing offices. The Center is also the home of the State Archives and Museum. Through these five programs, the South Dakota State Historical Society preserves and interprets the history and culture of South Dakota and its people. The Museum of the South Dakota State Historical Society was founded in 1901. The collection has grown to over 30,000 artifacts.〔http://history.sd.gov/Museum/Collection/collection.aspx〕 The State Archives was created by the State Legislature in 1975, but the origins of the archives collections date back to the creation of the State Historical Society in 1891. The State Archives contains over 12,000 cubic feet of records that document many aspects of South Dakota’s history and heritage.〔http://history.sd.gov/Archives/〕 ==History== The South Dakota State Historical Society was first organized as the Old Settlers Association of Dakota Territory in 1862. After joining the union in 1889, South Dakotans recognized the need to preserve the history and culture of the new state and the State Historical Society was founded on February 27, 1890.〔Welcome Panel at the South Dakota Cultural Heritage Center〕 The group remained loosely organized until 1901, when the South Dakota state legislature established the Department of History. Doane Robinson was appointed Secretary of the State Historical Society and Head of the Department of History.〔Welcome Panel at the South Dakota Cultural Heritage Center〕 Its mission: to “collect, preserve, exhibit, and publish” materials on the history of the state.〔”South Dakota Department of History: Its Work,” South Dakota Historical Collections 7 (1914): II.〕 In 1932, the South Dakota State Historical Society (Department of History) moved to the newly completed Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Memorial Building.〔http://history.sd.gov/aboutus.aspx〕 This building, located directly across from the State Capitol, was erected to honor the veterans of World War I. Here, the society had its own space for offices, collections, archives, and exhibits. The Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Memorial Building served as the home of the Society until 1989. In honor of the state’s centennial, the South Dakota Cultural Heritage Center was constructed to celebrate the anniversary and showcase the state’s history .〔http://history.sd.gov/aboutus.aspx〕
