Steele City Historical District
Just 12 miles southeast of Fairbury on Hwy 8 lies the little town
of Steele City, Nebraska along the Little Blue River. The Jefferson County Historical Society owns and maintains four historic buildings
that offer visitors a glimpse of Steele City's past - circa 1900
stone blacksmith's shop in working condition, circa 1902 stone
livery stable, circa 1880's stone Baptist church and brick bank
museum. The buildings are open to the public on Sundays, 2-4 pm
Memorial Day to Labor Day.
The local watering hole, The
Salty Dog Saloon, is a great place
to quench your thirst and satisfy your hunger. A Biker-friendly
bar, locals know that The Salty Dog Saloon is the place for great
Mexican food. Take a look at the menu.
The third weekend in September, Steele City plays host to thousands
of bargain hunters and history buffs who come for the annual Steele
City Flea Market and Old Farm Machinery Show, sponsored by the
Jefferson County Historical Society. Rain or shine, this event features
hundreds of vendors, old time blacksmithing and horseshoeing demonstrations,
plus a working saw and shingle mill. For more information, contact
Belva Cassel at (402) 442-2218 or email inquiries to info@fairburynebraska.net.
