Stuhr Museum, Pioneer life museum in Grand Island, Nebraska
The Stuhr Museum spans 208 acres with 107 buildings, including a recreated 1890s Railroad Town displaying authentic pioneer structures and period artifacts.
Edward Durell Stone designed the main Stuhr Building, which underwent a 7.4 million dollar restoration before its National Register of Historic Places listing in 2015.
The Railroad Town section features original period buildings, including the birthplace of actor Henry Fonda, where interpreters demonstrate traditional pioneer crafts and skills.
The museum at 3133 US Highway 34 maintains 140,456 historical artifacts, hosts educational programs, and organizes the annual Fantasy of Trees community event.
Several films, including Sarah Plain and Tall and My Antonia, used the museum's authentic 19th-century buildings and landscape as their shooting location.
