The region around Auburn, a
small town in rural southeast Nebraska, was initially described
during the Lewis and Clark and Maximilian expeditions as a “garden
spot” above the Missouri River flood plain, characterized by rich
soil and wooded areas. Auburn consists of two National Register
quality town “centers” each with unique qualities: a primary
commercial district at the junction of highways 75 and 136, and a
more sedate district around the Courthouse Square. In 1883, a
diagonal brick street was developed to connect the two, which were
originally two separate towns that had joined in order to become the
Nemaha County Seat. Auburn has combined traditional agricultural
services with industrial development and tourism, and was a pioneer
in the field of economic development.
