Ellsworth County
presents a changing landscape, with rolling hills, plains, and wooded
areas throughout. A few miles in any direction brings you to an
entirely new countryside.
Located in Central
Kansas, Ellsworth County is just south of the Interstate 70 and is
served by K-140, K-14, and K-156 Highways.
Ellsworth County, known
as “The Pride of the Prairie”, is home to five diverse towns that make
up a thriving community.
History runs deep and varied in this post rock county.
Enjoy the rich Czech heritage of Wilson, the Mexican heritage of
Kanopolis, the strong Baptist roots of Lorraine, the German-Irish
heritage of Holyrood, or experience the Wild West Cowtown of Ellsworth.
