Things to Do

🚀 Did you know Ellsworth County has not one, but TWO historic missile silos? 🚀

These iconic structures take you back to the Cold War era, when our community played a pivotal role in national defense. Today, they’re being reimagined and repurposed, adding unique layers to our local history and tourism.

Here’s why it matters:

From preserving history to sparking curiosity, these silos highlight our town’s past and create opportunities for the future. They draw in visitors, foster a sense of pride, and remind us all of the resilient spirit that built this community. They’ve even become popular stops on road trips, giving locals and newcomers alike a reason to explore!

If you’re new to Ellsworth or just passing through, take the chance to visit these remarkable sites. They’re reminders of a different time, brought back to life by community members who see potential in every corner of our county. 🏛️✨
