Wymore
is a small town in southeastern Nebraska with a population of approximately 1,600 residents. It is served by U.S. Highway 77 and is 52 miles south of Lincoln and 114 miles southeast of Omaha. The village of Wymore was founded in 1881 as a railroad town. It lies in the fertile valley and gently rolling hills of the Big Blue River. The basic economic activities consist of farming, retail sales and small manufacturing - Wymore is mostly considered to be a "bedroom community." It is called the Welsh Capital of the Great Plains due to its many generations of immigrants from Wales who settled in the area. The Welsh continued their day-to-day life in Wymore by founding a Welsh-language church, school and cemetery, as well as preserving the Welsh traditions of music, dance and poetry. The town is home to the Wymore Welsh Heritage Centre, which includes the Welsh Language library (catalogued in English as well as Welsh), oral and written histories of early settlers and artifacts of Welsh life in the Great Plains. Other attractions in Wymore include the Pleasantview Schoolhouse, a fully restored 1900s era schoolhouse and museum, and several city parks that offer picnicking, playground equipment and other recreation.
