Jamestown, North Dakota
The city of Jamestown is located
approximately halfway between Bismarck, the
capital of North Dakota, and Fargo, the
largest city in North Dakota. Her surnames
are "Buffalo City" and "Pride of the
Prairie" and these are not by chance. In the
19th century, huge herds of buffalo
populated the prairies around the city. The
National Buffalo Museum testifies to this
today. Here is also the tallest statue of an
American bison at eight meters. The land
next to the museum is roamed by a herd of
living bison with a rare white buffalo. The
Stutsman County Memorial Museum and Fort
Seward also tell of the place's past.
The city's long history began when a
trading post was established at the
confluence of the James River and Pipestem
Creek. In the meantime, Jamestown even
became the capital of the new state of North
Dakota. Today Jamestown is a popular
vacation spot for outdoor activities,
camping, fishing, hiking on beautiful trails
and much more. There are many charming
little places around Jamestown that you
should definitely explore.
Highlights in Jamestown
- National Buffalo Museum
The National Buffalo Museum is home to
numerous artifacts related to the
founding of the city, the huge bison
herds of the surrounding prairies, and
Native Americans. A small herd of bison
with 25-30 animals also belongs to the
museum. Among them is the albino bison
Dakota Miracle.
- Stutsman County Memorial
Museum
Numerous artifacts representing the
history of Jamestown are exhibited in
the magnificent property. Each room is
individually decorated from the railroad
room to the post office.
- Fort Seward
Fort Seward operated from 1872-1877 as a
protective device for more than 500
railway workers. It also assisted the S.
Marshalls in enforcing the law, serving
as a mailing hub and protecting herds of
cattle on their routes to the Missouri
River. Discover the short but very
intense history of the fort!

Williston, North Dakota
Welcome to Williston! The region where
Yellowstone and Missouri River meet has
flourished for centuries. That's why
Williston calls himself a
boomtown. Initially, the Native Americans
brought about the upswing, then fur traders
and explorers and finally agriculture
stimulated the region. Today, it is thanks
to the Bakken oil field in Williston that
North Dakota is the second largest oil
producer in the United States.
The exciting history of this place can be
explored today especially at the
Missouri-Yellowstone Confluence Interpetive
Center, Fort Union and Fort Buford. The
former illustrates above all the Lewis and
Clark Expedition of 1805 and 1806. Enjoy the
wonderful view of the two rivers that merge
and marvel at the drawings and diary entries
of the expedition.
From 1828 to 1867, the Fort Union Trading
Post was the main hub for trading with the
Assiniboine and six other Indian peoples on
the upper Missouri River. The tribes brought
buffalo and other animal skins, and in
exchange received goods from all over the
world, such as. B. clothing, weapons and
pearls. In contrast to other places, people
from the new and old world lived here in
peaceful coexistence.
Just 3 miles from Fort Union, Fort Buford
was established as a military base on what
is now the state of North Dakota and Montana
in 1866. It was intended to secure the
overland and waterways of the settlers
moving west. The fort remained in operation
for over 29 years. It is the historically
significant place where the great Sioux
chief Sitting Bull surrendered in 1881.
Both forts are still preserved as museums
and have been extensively
reconstructed. During the guided tours
taking place here you will hear authentic
stories and you will be presented how the
traders and soldiers lived and worked at
that time. A stop that is worth it!
Highlights in Williston
- Fort Buford
Fort Buford was one of the main camps of
the American armed forces in the
mid-19th century. But only for a few
years. The capitulation of the famous
Indian chief Sitting Bull was
historically significant.
- Fort Union Trading Post
From 1828 to 1867, Fort Union was the
primary trading center for fur trading
on the Upper Missouri River.
- Missouri-Yellowstone
Confluence Interpretive Center
TheInterpretive Center lies
at the confluence of the two rivers
Yellowstone and Missouri River. On the
one hand, the work is dedicated to the
history of this economically important
region. On the other hand, you can learn
a lot of interesting things about the
Lewis and Clark expedition, which at the
time was looking for a way to the west
and should eventually find it.
