Legacy of the Plains Museum

Great stop for the whole family. Lots of exhibits for all ages to interact with and learn some interesting bits of local and regional history. Definitely more information than can be seen or taken in in a single visit. Will have to go back a second or third time to fully appreciate all there is to see.

Expect to spend some time here. Soooo much to take in. Extensive exhibits about agriculture and how it progressed in the area from dry farming to irrigation, from weed control to soil control. Good stuff. Very nice quilt exhibit dated from years ago. Spacious and large.

Great spot to learn about the history of western Nebraska. They rotate exhibits so there is a good chance if you haven’t been in awhile you would see something new. $10 to get in and soak up some great history. Well worth it.

It's bigger than expected! Plenty of material and historical artifacts to browse through. I really liked that it has several interactive spots and updated information, comparing today's lifestyle to old times. It shows the changes that happened in the region and how the technology evolved. It's worth the visit!

Great interactive museum suited for both kids and adults. $10 admission priced seems high but after experiencing the museum I would say the price is worth it. The ear buds provided didn't really seem necessary except for one of the places the rest mainly just provided music for the short video clips. Kids activities may have used the ear buds more. The video viewing rooms were a great touch such as hearing Indian history while standing in a teepee and gazing into the fire pit. Highly recommend this stop!
