On this day in history, October 4, 1927, Mount Rushmore’s moment of creation begins in South Dakota
Work on the iconic Mount Rushmore National Memorial started on October 4, 1927, shortly after its dedication by President Calvin Coolidge. The project, led by American sculptor Gutzon Borglum, aimed to carve the faces of four U.S. presidents—George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln—into the granite face of Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
