Tagus, North Dakota
Tagus is a ghost town in Mountrail County, North Dakota, United States. It was named after the Tagus river, the longest river in the Iberian Peninsula.
Tagus reported a population of just 14 during the 1970 Census, and the town disincorporated after its last business closed in 1976. The area is now part of Egan Township. In 2001, the sole remaining church was destroyed by fire, and local residents attribute the fire to vandalism. The spot is now marked by a memorial plaque. Tagus is now primarily abandoned, with a handful of residents and numerous vacant structures.
