Second Corn Palace Built and Replaced by Brick Structure
The 1905 second Corn Palace in Mitchell replaced the first due to space needs and adopted corn murals instead of a geometric design. Workmen replace murals annually using 4000 pounds of grain, 50000 ears of corn, and 1000 pounds of nails, all in their natural state. The brick building at 6th and Main opened after 1920 with a large auditorium, African trophy display, state flags, and free history movies attracting visitors during a Sioux Falls tour stop.
