Our Mission — Scandinavian Heritage Association

The Scandinavian Heritage Association in Minot is much more than a park or a tourist attraction. It is a nonprofit cultural organization dedicated to preserving, celebrating and teaching the traditions of the five Nordic countries: Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland.

The association created and maintains the Scandinavian Heritage Park, one of Minot’s best-known landmarks and cultural gathering places.
