The Kuhrt Ranch in Shermanville Township in Sherman County, Kansas, near Edson, Kansas, dates from 1907. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[1]
Its main house was built around 1907 and was modified in 1934. It is termed to be Spanish Colonial-inspired.[2]
The listing included three contributing buildings and a contributing structure. Another contributing building is a barn built c. 1922, modified in 1933. The third is a machine shop dating from c. 1933. The contributing structure is an arched bridge built by Paul Kuhrt from plywood and metal, then poured concrete.[2]
It has been stated that the ranch started in the 1880s as a one-room sod house which established Shermanville. "Even then, travelers found it a welcome respite and shelter on their journey. The property was purchased by William and Pauline Kuhrt in 1891, and renamed the Kuhrt Ranch, a landmark so noteworthy that it is today listed on the National Register of Historic Places."[3]
Stone from the ranch's quarry was used to build a number of buildings in nearby Bird City, including the city hall and city park, both built as Works Progress Administration projects during the New Deal.[4]
As of 2022 the property is listed as a "working farm and ranch resort" which is available for pheasant hunting[5] and for turkey hunting.[6] Economic development and members of the Kansas State University local extension have envisioned the ranch as a key example of agritourism in the area.[7]
