The Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park is located just west of Minden at 1450 Highway 88. The site, which includes an historic ranch house and several other buildings built between 1857 and 1917, was the home of Carson Valley pioneer Heinrich F. Dangberg and his descendants. The site was the central property of the Dangberg Land & Live Stock Co., once one of Carson Valley's largest ranches. Guided history tours include a look inside several buildings, with a focus on Dangberg and local history. Tour reservations are required and can be made by calling the park at (775) 783-9417. The park is also available for weddings and other private events.
