Missouri Breaks Interpretive Center
Missouri Breaks Interpretive Center Review
The Missouri Breaks Interpretive Center puts the fabled Missouri Breaks in perspective, and offers a virtual glimpse of the river to those not floating down the Mighty Mo and maps for those who do. The front of the building, on Fort Benton's historic levee, looks like the stunning White Cliffs of the Missouri; the rear resembles the deck of a paddlewheel steamer. Inside, photos and films of the river and its wildlife, interactive exhibits, and history lessons await. A complete set of lithographs by Karl Bodmer, a Swiss artist who documented the area in 1933, graces one wall of the center.
