About Our Organization

We are the only Welsh museum in the U.S. and Canada dedicated to those hearty souls who traveled across the pond for land. The Homestead Act was a very important part of these immigrants with a dream of farming. We have a museum, state-of-the art Archive and manage the Railroad Museum and one-room school in Wymore. In our Mission Statement we preserve, interpret and celebrate the history of Welsh pioneers on the North American prairies. In 2023 we will host a national festival for Welsh Americans and Canadians. This festival has never been in Nebraska and we are most excited to promote our state and especially southeast Nebraska.
