Stuhr Museum

The Stuhr Museum of the Prairie Pioneer is a museum located in Grand Island, Nebraska dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Pioneers who settled the plains of central Nebraska in the late 19th century.

[1] The museum is named after Leo Stuhr, a local farmer and politician whose family were among the area's pioneer settlers.

He donated land, money, and numerous artifacts that served as the foundation of the museum.

[2][3] Among the structures in Railroad Town is the house where actor Henry Fonda was born in 1905.
