The History of Bismarck Project began in the summer of 2009 as an idea to produce a series of documentaries on the history of this truly unique community. Since that time hundreds of photographs have been collected, nearly 30 hours of interviews have been conducted, historic footage of Bismarck has been catalogued, and we're just getting started.
The intention of the project is to document the events and people of Bismarck and to capture the spirit of the pioneers and legends that walked our streets. We want to help people understand how the entire history of the West was affected by the events that took place here.
This is an ongoing effort and we welcome your ideas and contributions.
