Porter Sculpture Park

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Porter Sculpture Park is located just off Interstate 90 in the South Dakota Drift Prarie, about 25 miles west of Sioux Falls. Many of the sculptures, in the style of industrial art, were made with scrap metal, old farm equipment, or railroad tie-plates. The largest sculpture in the park is a 60 foot tall bull head. This sculpture took three years to build, weighs 25 tons, and is equal in size to the heads of Mt. Rushmore.
