Teddy Roosevelt Statue in Minot | Bismarck News
Description
A century-old bronze statue of Theodore Roosevelt stands proudly in Minot, gifted by a close friend of the former president and shipped here via the Panama Canal in 1924. It’s not just a monument—it’s the reason behind the names of Roosevelt Park and the Roosevelt Park Zoo, honoring Teddy’s conservation legacy. After moving through several locations—including the zoo and a flood-damaged park—this historic sculpture now overlooks Burdick Expressway. This fall, Minot Parks will restore it, preserving a symbol of history, nature, and community that continues to welcome visitors to the park and zoo.
