Things to do in Aberdeen

Aberdeen is the hub of northeastern South Dakota, a city built by the railroads that still serves as a center for agriculture, manufacturing, healthcare and retail across a wide farming region. Northern State University brings students and faculty, and the area’s farms, grain operations and equipment dealers keep agribusiness at the core of the economy. L. Frank Baum lived in Aberdeen before he wrote The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and the town celebrates that connection with a Land of Oz in its children’s park.
