Oheyawahe is part of the Dakota homelands. It is a sacred place for Indigenous people who buried their ancestors here and continue to come here. The site is also known as Oheyawahe/Pilot Knob, a 112-acre site listed on the National Register of Historic Places and comprised of public and private land. Within the larger site, the City owns, manages, and interprets 27 acres that are open for public visitation. Building on previous planning efforts, this Interpretive Concept Plan advances interpretive messaging developed through guidance by Indigenous partners, Dakota elders, Tribal community members, Tribal Historic Preservation Officers, and other Indigenous people who connect with the site regularly.
