Best places: Historical landmarks in Council Bluffs, United States

👍 Really nice ambience and super awesome staff. The taste of the ice cream was good but not the best. It melted right away as it was served which was odd but the overall experience was good.

👍👍 Brother and Sister Cain were phenomenal, thank you so much for the tour and conversation. Well done historical center for not only church history but for United States' history. The mormon pioneers paved the way in so many ways.

Sweeping overlook & monument commemorating the expedition's meeting with Oto and Missouria Indians.

👍👍 An interesting story of Mormon history that few know about. After the death of the founder, Joseph Smith, there was no prophet-leader for many years. Brigham Young led the church west as the leader of the 12 Apostles. As the Saints wintered at Council Bluffs, Young had a vision that it was time to...

👍👍 This park is set on a hill overlooking Council Bluff, Iowa.

Tall golden spike built in 1939 to celebrate the Union Pacific & Central Pacific rail line junction.

😐 This building was an integral part of my youth. The architecture is beautiful.

👍👍 It a lovely park, not a historical museum. Still very nice

👍👍 Nice place to come down to and see one historical part of Omaha. There is a parking lot right by the South Omaha trail that you can park in to the right of the silos. The entrance is extremely bumpy though so be careful in a car. There are some cool murals at the base of the silos that make for a go...

👍👍 It's so unusual for a cabin this old to still exist, and for it to have been lived in until 1954! It is well maintained and a gem of Bellevue. I caught a pic in one of the back kitchen windows. It does not seem to have open hours at this time, but is worth stopping by if you love history and old bui...
