Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church
 

The historic Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church was originally from Hampton, Nebraska, as the Danish Lutheran Church. Available as a unique setting for weddings, baptisms, or other church services, the 'little white church', neatly trimmed in country green, is nestled on the south end of the museum grounds. Built in 1888, the church stands symbolic of the thousands of rural churches that once peppered the great plains. This beautiful church seats up to 110 people, and while there is no heat or air conditioning, dressing rooms and modern restrooms are located on-site.

The Stuhr Building
 

The Stuhr Building is the perfect place to host your reception, company party or gathering, family reunion, afternoon tea, wedding, or an exquisite evening gala.The museum's attractive main building displays beautiful marble flooring, incredible twin spiral staircases and four fountains providing an enchanting and classy environment.Edward Durell Stone, designer of the Kennedy Center of Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., also designed the Stuhr Building, which opened in 1967.

Hornady Family Arbor
 

Ten-foot wide paths wind through the picturesque environment you'll find in the Hornady Family Arbor. Complemented by a pond, windmill, wooden bridges, flower gardens, shrubs and picnic areas, this tree-filled haven is a peaceful, relaxing sanctuary.

Admirers of flora and fauna alike will enjoy the varieties of flowers growing here in the arbor, from lilacs to irises and daisies to lilies. The Arboretum is an idyllic setting for an outdoor wedding, portrait sitting, or an al fresco dinner party.

1893 Red Barn
 

Located at the 1893 Farmstead, the lean-to of the classic 'Red Barn' is available by reservation for your next country-themed outdoor event. A lean-to, along with a large barnyard, is ready for games to be played or a BBQ dinner to be served in this peaceful country setting. Resting next to the Cleary Farmhouse on the south portion of Stuhr Museum's grounds, the big red barn will add a rustic touch to your special day.
