THINGS TO DO IN LEAVENWORTH

As the “First City of Kansas”, Leavenworth is the ideal place to explore the state's history. We have a carousel museum complete with a restored 1913 C. W. Parker Carousel; visit the Richard Allen Cultural Center and Museum and discover the Black Dignity Portrait Collection. Those who love to shop can spend hours strolling our 28-block historic district, boasting dozens of locally-owned shops with crafts, gifts, and specialty items. Dining options range from iconic barbecue to authentic Mexican, Thai and Jamaican and everything in between.

With our close proximity to both Fort Leavenworth and Kansas City, Leavenworth is an ideal choice for your next family weekend getaway or business retreat, meeting, or conference. We look forward to making your time here a success.
