Faulk County, County in South Dakota, United States.
Faulk County encompasses 1,006 square miles of rolling hills and agricultural land with farms stretching across the eastern slopes of South Dakota.
The county, established in 1873 and organized in 1883, received its name from Andrew Jackson Faulk, the third Governor of Dakota Territory.
The Faulk County Courthouse displays murals painted by Charles Greener, who operated a local photo shop and received commissions from President Calvin Coolidge.
U.S. Highway 212 and South Dakota Highways 20, 45, and 47 connect the county's communities, with Faulkton serving as the administrative center.
A 1925 carousel with 19 original horses operates during summer months in Faulkton, purchased at auction by Bob Ketterling in 1981.
