First Presbyterian Church and Cemetery, Flandreau

            Wakpaipaksan Okodakiciye was built in 1873 by the Presbyterian congregation of the Mdewakanton Dakota who settled at "the bend in the river."  Few built resources remain from the homestead era when the Flandreau Santee Sioux came to that part of South Dakota, after a long ordeal as a people following the 1862 U.S.-Dakota Conflict in Minnesota.  The church is also significant for its association with early religious and civic leader, Reverend John Eastman (Mahpiyawakankida / Worshipping Cloud) who was pastor from 1875 to 1906.  The associated cemetery is the resting place of Taoyateduta / Little Crow, killed in Minnesota in 1863.  His remains were repatriated to Flandreau by his descendants there in 1971.

The First Presbyterian Church and Cemetery were listed in the National Register of Historic Places on July 31, 2017.
