Welcome to The World’s Only Corn Palace in Mitchell, one of South Dakota’s quirkiest landmarks and a roadside icon for more than 100 years. The tradition started back in 1892, when Mitchell created its first Corn Palace to celebrate the area’s agricultural success (and convince a few more people to move to town). It worked, and the permanent palace you see today has stood here since 1921. The best part? Its huge exterior murals are created using 12 different colors and shades of corn, along with native grasses and grains. Each year, they’re stripped back and completely redesigned around a new theme, meaning there’s always something different to see. Today, more than 500,000 visitors stop by each year to admire the murals, explore inside and, naturally, get a photo with Cornelius, the six-foot-tall ear of corn. 🌽 Corny? Absolutely. Worth seeing? Also yes. 📍 theworldsonlycornpalace | Mitchell, South Dakota #HiFromSD
