Come and visit the World's Largest Petrified Park
 The Petrified Wood Park and museum is a sight you won't soon forget. The man-made towers of ancient stone stand like a testament to the men and women who created a castle-like world in the vastness of the prairie. Thousands of curious specimens of plant life form the historic ages are gathered and blended together to create this unique attraction located on Main Street.
There are over 100 petrified structures dotting the park, interspersed with "cannon balls", the "castle" and a large grotto. ... more pictures and information |
