BAKED GOODS

Dorrance Bankery

Dorrance, KS | Russell County

Step inside this former bank and enjoy baked goods and classic drinks, from water to old-fashioned sodas. The beautifully restored 1905 building preserves history in fascinating ways, including glass slide photographs taken in the early 1900s by 15-year-old Leslie Halbe. His images capture homes, churches, country scenes, early automobiles, buggies, farm equipment, and more.

Make an appointment for a half-day tour exploring the history, culture, and natural beauty of the area.
