Great Platte River Road Archway

This compelling museum, located in an arch over I-80 near Kearney, covers the legacy of travelers along the Platte. Interactive exhibits and dioramas at the Great Platte River Road Archway chronicle the rich history of fur trappers, Native Americans, Oregon Trail pioneers, Pony Express riders, the workers who built America's first transcontinental railroad and the daring motorists who ventured on the nation's first coast-to-coast highway.
