Minnesota River Valley Scenic Byway
Traverse des Sioux Treaty Site History Center, MN

The park offers hiking and historical interpretation. The Treaty Rock on the west side of the highway marks the 1851 Traverse des Sioux Treaty signing site. On the east side of the highway is the old abandoned city, the 1850 steamboat landing and the "Crossing of the Sioux."

The home of the Nicollet County Historical Society, the History Center was built next to the site where the Treaty of 1851 between the Dakota People and the federal government was signed. The museum contains three exhibit halls, an audio visual room, and archives.
