Notes
  • Significance: The Opocensky House is significant for both its architectural merit and associative value. In 1885, Frederick Opocensky, a Bohemian immigrant, moved to Niobrara, opened a general merchandise store and immediately became involved in the social and commercial activities of the community. In 1904, he established the Niobrara Brick and Tile Company which later produced the cement brick and tile used in the construction of his house. It was the use of these bricks and tiles in coordination with its elaborate eclectic design that gave the Opocensky residence its uniqueness. The house was the largest, most pretentious home in the small rural community of Niobrara.
