Medora is the only incorporated place in, and the county seat of, Billings County, North Dakota. The community was founded in 1883 along the transcontinental rail line of the Northern Pacific Railway by Marquis de Mores, a French nobleman who named the city after his wife, Medora von Hoffman. Marquis de Mores built a meat packing plant and a home, called the Chateau de Mores, which now serves as a museum. Medora is located just south of Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
