Cloud County, Kansas
Cloud County floats in north-central Kansas, named after Civil War colonel William Cloud. Concordia, the county seat, is home to about half of the county’s 9,000 residents.
The Nazareth Motherhouse is an impressive piece of architecture that looks like it was plucked from Europe. If you’re passing through on Highway 81, keep an eye out for the Whole Wall Mural. It’s a beauty.
If you’re into offbeat attractions, don’t miss the POW Camp Concordia Museum. In fact, it housed German prisoners during WWII. The whole county gets pumped for the annual Fall Fest in September.
