Plattsmouth: Missouri River Crossing and Cass County Seat
Plattsmouth sits on the west bank of the Missouri River where the Platte River empties in, about twenty miles south of Omaha. The town was founded in 1854, one of the first non-indigenous settlements in what would become Nebraska Territory. It served as the seat of Cass County from the county's creation and retained that role as surrounding towns rose and fell.
The Burlington and Missouri River Railroad bridge, completed in 1880 across the Missouri at Plattsmouth, was the first rail bridge across the river south of Omaha. The crossing made Plattsmouth an important junction in the late nineteenth century. Today the current Burlington Northern Santa Fe bridge carries freight traffic through the city, and the Plattsmouth Bridge on U.S. 34 spans the Missouri for highway traffic into Iowa.
Downtown Plattsmouth retains a compact commercial district on Main Street with buildings from the 1870s through 1920s. The 1891 Cass County Courthouse, a Romanesque structure built from Indiana limestone, anchors the square. Platte River State Park south of town covers 450 acres on the river bluffs. Schilling Wildlife Management Area at the Platte-Missouri confluence attracts waterfowl hunters each fall.
