Take the Arnold Historical Walking Tour

Take a stroll through yesterday in Arnold! Grab one of the new historical walking tour brochures from Mills Hardware, BrewBakers Coffee House & Gifts, Four County Boutique, or the AEDC office and embark on an adventure of Arnold’s history.

The brochure features a map that guides you to each historical sign created by Berni Crow with support from Arnold Rotary. With numbered sites for easy navigation, you’ll enjoy discovering significant landmarks and learning about the town’s story during your journey. As a self-guided tour, you can go as fast or slow as you like, any day of the week!

Remember to have your 2025 Custer County Chief Express “Explore Custer County” ticket stamped when you pick up your historical walking tour brochure for a chance to win $1,000 in Business Bucks. There are several Arnold locations on this ticket, as well as across Custer County, so be sure to visit as many as you can for a chance to win!

Explore Arnold and immerse yourself in the history of our charming community.

The walking tour brochure was created by AEDC and funded by LB840.
