I love it when the kids "accidentally" learn something when we are traveling. The Andrew Jackson Higgins National Memorial in Columbus, NE is a great road trip stop. The park features a full-size replica of the boats used to storm the beaches on D-Day (which Andrew Jackson Higgins invented). It was a very interesting and interactive stop. Plus there is a nice 911 memorial and a playground right next door.Will you add this stop to your Nebraska road trip?#andrewjacksonhiggins #nationalmemorial #columbusnebraska #nebraskalove #roadtriplover #goplaces #familytravelgoals

A really nice place to visit. You can walk in the boat, and sit in the driver's seat. A cool life size reenactment space. Makes you feel like your landing on a beach during D-Day. There's a nice walking trail next to a river next to the place. Also a nice city park. Lots of trees in the park for shade or have a picnic. Great place for young and old. Well worth a trip.

If you are a history buff, this park is awesome! There is a sculpture dedicated to 9/11 with very descriptive information board, flag assembly including territorial flags, not just US state flags, with an information board describing their significance. There are bronze statues that are described and a metal model of a WW2 beach landing craft. The sand surrounding the display contains sands from each foreign beach American boots have traversed in combat. This is an excellent memorial and I will definitely be returning every time I'm...

I was part of the social sciences class in 6th grade that helped build this monument, it was designed by children to provide a good outlook and respect for the man, the process of ingenuity and manufacturing. Patriotism and the American dream. It's a five star visit....
