We have selected our favorite, sometimes less known
places to see when visiting Nebraska.
Alaska Native Heritage Center
Carhenge - Alliance
In 1987, artist Jim Reinders completed a full-scale replica of the English
monument Stonehenge using thirty-eight automobiles, all spray painted gray.
The replica, a monument to the artist’s father, attracts tourists from all
over the world.
Museum of the Fur Trade - Chadron
The museum is dedicated to preserving the rich history of the North American
fur trade, and includes artifacts and galleries that trace the everyday
lives of British, French, and Spanish fur traders, voyageurs, mountain men,
buffalo hunters, and Plains and Woodland Indians. The trading post is a
reconstruction built on the original foundation of a post operated between
1837 and 1876 by the American Fur Company.
Great Platte River Road Archway Monument - Kearney
The Archway Monument stretches across Interstate 80 and serves as a memorial
to the Great Platte River Road and its significance to the development of
the American West. A series of full size dioramas and multi-media
presentations trace the history of the area from the Plains Indians to the
present.
Toadstool Park - Crawford
Toadstool Park is noted for its unusual geologic formations and for fossil
deposits. A one-mile trail highlights many examples of eroded clay and
sandstone formations, and a reconstructed sod house shows how homesteaders
survived on the prairies despite the limited natural resources.
Strategic Air and Space Museum - Ashland
The Strategic Air and Space Museum exists to preserve aircraft and missiles
for future generations and includes two aircraft display hangars, an
aircraft restoration gallery and a 200-seat theater. Traveling exhibits
currently include a display of the First Presidential Helicopter and a
Korean War Exhibition.
