Pipestone National Monument - Minnesota
This National Monument is truly a sacred place and has been for close to 2000 years. The Sioux account as to the origin of the pipestone, as recorded by George Catlin in 1836 states that .... At an ancient time the Great Spirit, in the form of a large bird, stood upon the wall of rock and called all the tribes around him, and breaking out a piece of the red stone formed it into a pipe and smoked it, the smoke rolling over the whole multitude. He then told his red children that this red stone was their flesh, that they were made from it, that they must all smoke to him through it, that they must use it for nothing but pipes; and as it belonged alike to all tribes, the ground was sacred, and no weapons must be used or brought upon it.
In 1937 Congress established Pipestone National Monument to provide traditional quarrying for Indians. Today pipe carvings are appreciated as art-works as well as for ceremonial use. Once again, as commanded by the spirit bird in the Sioux story of it's creation, the pipestone here is quarried by an American Indian enrolled in a tribe recognized by the US Government. An age old tradition continues in the modern world, ever changing yet rooted in the past.
The unique and special stone is also referred to as Catlinite, named after George Catlin.
Be sure to enjoy the Circle Trail and take in beautiful Winnewissa falls and then explore the ancient quarries. The Native Americans who are tasked with quarrying the stone treat it with reverence and respect. Please do the same and not remove any pieces of the stone, nor intrude in the space assigned to each workman. The pipestone is still quarried by hand just as it has been for centuries.

A visit to Winnewissa Falls in Southwest Minnesota's Pipestone National Monument.
Culture + Spirituality | Pipestone National Monument in Minnesota
For countless generations, Native American Indians have quarried the red pipestone found at this site. These grounds are sacred to many indigenous people because the pipestone quarried here is carved into pipes used for prayer. Many believe that the pipe's smoke carries one's prayer to the Great Spirit. The traditions of quarrying and pipe making continue here today.
When you pray with this pipe, you pray for and with everything.

Pipestone National Monument Minnesota
Pipestone National Monument is located in southwestern Minnesota, just north of the city of Pipestone, Minnesota. It is located along the highways of U.S. Route 75, Minnesota State Highway 23 and Minnesota State Highway 30.
The catlinite, or pipestone, has been traditionally used to make ceremonial pipes, vitally important to traditional Plains Indian religious practices. The quarries are sacred to most of the tribe of North America, Dakota, Lakota, and other tribes of Native Americans, and were neutral territory where all Nations could quarry stone for ceremonial pipes.[2] The Sioux tribes may have taken control of the quarries around 1700, but the Minnesota pipestone has been found inside North American burial mounds dating from long before that, and ancient Indian trails leading to the area suggest pipestone may have been quarried there for many centuries.[3]
As the United States grew westward in the 19th century, pipes found their way into white society through trade. To protect their source, the Yankton Sioux secured free and unrestricted access via The Treaty With The Yankton Sioux, which was signed on April 19, 1858.
The land was acquired by the federal government in 1893. In 1928, the Yankton Sioux, then resettled on a reservation 150 miles (240 km) away, sold their claim to the federal government. The National Monument was established by an act of Congress on August 25, 1937, and the establishing legislation restored quarrying rights to the Indians.[2] Today only people of Native American ancestry are allowed to quarry the pipestone. A boundary change occurred on June 18, 1956.[4] As an historic area under the National Park Service it was administratively listed on the National Register of Historic Places under the heading Cannomok'e—Pipestone National Monument. The Red Pipestone Quarries within the monument comprise a Minnesota State Historic Site.[5]
During the summer months, there are cultural demonstrations at the monument. The Upper Midwest Indian Cultural Center, located inside the visitor center, sponsors demonstrations of pipemaking by native craftworkers using the stone from the quarries. Local Native Americans carve the stones using techniques passed down from their ancestors. Many of the demonstrators are third or fourth generation pipe makers.
Visitors can also walk along a three-quarter mile (1.2 km) self-guided trail to view the pipestone quarries and a waterfall. A trail guide is available at the visitor center. About 260 acres (1.1 km2) of the national monument has been restored to native tallgrass prairie. Monument staff burn prairie parcels on a rotating basis to control weeds and stimulate growth of native grasses. A larger area of restored tallgrass prairie and a small Bison herd are maintained by the Minnesota DNR at Blue Mounds State Park, 20 miles (32 km) to the south.
The visitor center features exhibits about the natural and cultural history of the site, including a petroglyph display. There is also an orientation video about the history of the pipestone quarries.

Greetings from Pipestone, MN!
Hello! I'm Nisa Semesta, an Indonesian 2012/2013 YES exchange student hosted in Pipestone, MN!

This video was made for Padmanaba 70 and AFS Chapter Yogyakarta :) I would like to thank everyone who made this video possible, especially my host family and friends in Pipestone Area Schools!
Pipestone National Monument (Minnesota) - March 7, 2009
Slide show of a visit to Pipestone National Monument (near Pipestone, Minnesota) on a gray, cold day (about 24 deg F). Photos include a look at the quarries (worked by native Americans), a walk on the Circle Trail, a view of the Oracle (at 3:28), a crossing of Pipestone Creek (near Winnewissa Falls), and a few other points of interest along the way. One deer was watching from the ridge above the prairie; I was too slow on the draw to get a photo of the red-headed woodpecker that saw me before I saw it; and I heard a pheasant (but did not see it). Not another person was on the trail (however, the visitor center was open). The site is probably a bit more hospitable in warmer weather.

At the Pipestone Sacred Quarry
My first visit to the sacred quarry at Pipestone, MN., May 31st, 2012. Heavy rains flooded the quarry pits, as is common in the spring. Quarrying begins later in the year when the pits dry out. Only hand tools are used to get at the soft red stone layer, sandwiched between harder than steel layers of Sioux quartzite. $3 gets you in to see a natural wonder!
