John G. Neihardt State Historic Site



John G. Neihardt State Historic Site, also known as the Neihardt Center, is located in Bancroft, Nebraska, United States and features museum exhibits about Nebraska Poet Laureate John Neihardt.

The one room study that Neihardt used from 1911 through 1920 as the place where he wrote many of his works is preserved at the site. In 1970 the site was entered into the National Register of Historic Places, and is the only structure remaining from the original property. The room has been furnished as if used by Neihardt, and visitors may view it from the open door.

The site is operated by the Nebraska State Historical Society, and also features the Sioux Prayer Garden and a library with materials about Neihardt's life and legacy. Special events include an annual Neihardt Day celebration.
