Salt Car Murals

Lyons, KS | Rice County
What if the best way to explore Lyons is to follow a trail of salt cars? Celebrating the town's salt mining roots, retired salt cars donated by Lyons' two salt mines have been transformed into colorful murals by local artists. Each one shares a piece of the community's story while adding a little surprise around every corner. Check out the map and see how many you can find.
