Welcome to Tecumseh
Tecumseh is a distinctive rural community of 1,800 located in Southeastern Nebraska at the intersection of State Highway 50 and U.S. Highway 136. It is only an hour drive from Lincoln or Omaha and a short two-hour drive from Kansas City. Tecumseh is only 28 miles west of I-29 and 55 miles south of I-80. Tecumseh's historic town square contains many buildings which were significant architectural pieces in the past. The 130 year old county courthouse (pictured above) and Tecumseh City Hall are especially impressive pieces of Romanesque, Classic Revival-style architecture.
