Stunning

Didn’t know anything about this place, I spotted the bison out near our hotel and walked over to take a photo. I was delighted then to be led on and on through the most amazing sculptures! There are birds high up on walls and lamps,...More

Wonderful place to think

This is really a beautiful spot at night, with its fountains. It is part of the same overall monument as the Pioneer Courage park down the street. It is best to take them both in as a unit. But if you need a beautiful place...More

Heritage site

Omaha has a rich history of western expansion that is captured at these sites. Thanks to FNB for capturing history with amazing animal sculptures.

Best large scale sculpture in the world!

There is a great story that this tells and you should start at the World Herald and end at First National Tower to experience it. Walk among the figures and think about how it might have been in 1850.

Beautiful sculpture

This is a lovely piece of art to depict what early visitors to the area looked like, experienced, etc. But, it is a little bit of a walk from other downtown Omaha sites.

Pioneer public art

This is an instillation of large scale realistic sculptures, which appear to be bronze, depicting the pioneer movement across the Midwest by covered wagon in the mid 1900s. While each individual piece is impressive, the entire collection is spread around downtown Omaha making it rathe...More

Beautiful sculpture but that's about it.

It's a nice scuplture but I wouldn't go to see it if I wasn't already going to be in the neighborhood.
