Henderson Mennonite Heritage Park

Henderson Mennonite Heritage Park Henderson Mennonite Heritage Park is an 8 1/2 acre site just north of Henderson, NE that tells the story of the Mennonites who settled in this area.

There is a $10 admission fee. The park includes a replica of the original Immigrant House built by the railroad to house the first Mennonite settlers who immigrated from Russia. At the opposite end of the park is a replica of a Country Mennonite Church. There is a farmhouse, summer kitchen, outdoor oven, outhouse, chicken house, granary, windmill, water tower and fully restored barn built in 1911.

There is also a local country schoolhouse District that has been completely refurbished. A Visitor Center/General Store is located on the Main Street of the park and serves as an office and museum.
