Pipestone is the home of the Great Pipestone Quarries sacred ground to our Tribal people for over 2,000 years. You will get the opportunity to see how the stone is still quarried by hand and make something from Pipestone to take home. Pipestone is a special place which touches many people. Pipestone pipes were and still are important to many tribal people because of the central part they play in many ceremonies.
