Even if you are not a history fanatic, this is a place to see. The 60 foot high faces were completed in 1941 taking almost 14 years to complete. Also, before the pandemic, there was a Native American presence on the grounds explaining the stories of the area tribes. You can walk the trails around the grounds where facts about the presidents and the construction are displayed. The Avenue of Flags just reopened for visitors, and it is a colorful addition to the granite portraits. Also nearby is the Crazy Horse Memorial. Not supported by US funds, the work here is moving much slower. Even so, the artifacts and presentations of Native American history and culture make this an excellent stop, too. The explanation of the pose is that a white man ask Crazy Horse where his land was, and he pointed to the distance and said ‘where my dead lie buried’.
