historical societies.
When land is contributed or purchased for historical purposes, the title must vest in the state
of North Dakota. The land may be placed in the custody of the county historical societies of the
respective counties in which the sites are located and may be improved and used for the
accumulation and care of relics of historical interest. When it appears that the use and purpose
of the land is a matter of primarily local or regional interest, the state historical society may,
upon such terms, conditions, and consideration as the state historical board may require,
transfer and convey the land to a political subdivision or nonprofit corporation where the interest
lay.
