Sioux City Lewis And Clark Interpretive Center
- Sioux City Lewis And Clark Interpretive Center
The center focuses on Meriwether Lewis's and William Clark's experience in what is now Sioux City, Iowa. The death and burial of Sergeant Charles Floyd on August 20, 1804 is at the heart of the story. The exhibits include animatronic mannequins, the changing-river exhibit, map-making tools, computers, flip books, stamping stations, text-and-graphic panels, lift-and-drop panels, informational doors and drums, hand-painted murals, brass-rubbing stations, and replicas of military equipment and Indian artifacts. A videotape presentation, produced for the Interpretive Center, is shown every 15 minutes in the Keelboat Theater. The grounds include a 30 by 50 foot, 15-star-15 stripe U.S. Flag. The U.S. Flag is a replica of the one that Lewis and Clark carried. The 14 foot tall "Spirit Of Discovery" sculpture depicts Lewis, Clark, and their newfoundland dog Seaman. The “Garden of Discovery” showcases species encountered by, and in some cases collected by, the Lewis & Clark Expedition.
