About this property
The Bordeaux Trading Post near Chadron, Nebraska was built during 1845–46 by James Bordeaux. It has been reconstructed faithfully, in the same location with the same post-holes, using weathered old lumber from a nearby ranchhouse. It is now the Museum of the Fur Trade . In 1972 the post was listed as an archeological site, with potential for information to be gleaned in the future, on the National Register of Historic Places.
