Last Chance Store
category : Pioneer History
Like its name warns, this store was once the "last chance" for travelers on the Santa Fe Trail to buy supplies for their journey to New Mexico. Built in 1857, the limestone structure is the oldest commercial building in Council Grove and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It once housed post office facilities and served as a government trading house and polling place.
