The slogan for Mandan, North Dakota, “Where the West Begins,” embodies our community’s rugged and hearty nature evident in our terrain, people, annual celebrations, and heritage, first as a village for the Mandan tribe, then a cavalry fort, railroad town and hub for area ranchers and farmers.
Today, Mandan is a growing city. As the county seat for Morton County, and along with Bismarck, Mandan serves as a regional retail and trade center.
We are passionately retaining our hometown atmosphere and history, while moving ahead everyday. We welcome new residents, businesses and visitors!
