Local historian and PAL board member Ed Zimmer will lead a 90-minute walking tour of Wyuka Cemetery on Sunday, May 17. The tour will begin at 2 p.m. in front of Rudge Chapel at 3600 O Street.

Wyuka is listed on the National Register of Historic Places for its scenic "rural cemetery" layout, historic architecture, and beautiful grave markers. Ed's spring tour will emphasize the artistry of the Kimball Brothers monument company of Lincoln, dating from the 1880s through the 1930s. 

This event is brought to you by our friends at Wyuka Historical Foundation.
