Mobridge

City in Walworth County, north-central South Dakota; population (1990) 3,800. Mobridge stands on the Missouri River, 145 km/90 mi west of Aberdeen and 40 km/25 mi south of the North Dakota border.

Once the site of Arikara and Sioux villages, Mobridge was founded in 1906. It is a trade and distribution centre for a ranching and farming region. West of the city is the final resting place of the renowned Sioux chief Sitting Bull, who was killed near here in 1890; his body was moved to this location in 1953 from its original burial site at Fort Yates, in North Dakota.
