Coughlin Campanile
Standing 165 feet tall, the Coughlin Campanile is an iconic landmark. Visitors and locals alike take on the challenge of climbing its 180 steps to enjoy breathtaking views of Brookings and beyond.
Made of white Indiana limestone and red brick, this towering structure is a must-see when exploring South Dakota State University’s scenic campus. Snap a photo, soak in the view and check this Brookings favorite off your bucket list!
The key to the Coughlin Campanile may be checked out at the SDSU Alumni Center on Medary Avenue or at the University Police Department. Climbs must be made during daylight, as lighting in the tower is minimal.
