Herman Reinders Lived and worked his farm near Alliance Nebraska until his death in 1982. As friends and family gathered to pay respects to him, there were discussions of a memorial. In June of 1987 35 of his friends and family gathered and built Carhenge. It was officially dedicated on the Summer solstice in 1987.



I visited Carhenge the first time in 2007. Although not much has changed in the past 7 years I couldn't resist a return visit.

Carhenge will be in the path of the Solar eclipse of August 21, 2017, Maybe a 3rd visit will be in order.
