Alliance is best known in Nebraska for Carhenge, a 1987 roadside sculpture that arranges 39 automobiles in the form of England’s Stonehenge. The city stands on the High Plains near the western edge of the Nebraska Sandhills, a vast region of grass-stabilized sand dunes. Railways shaped Alliance from its beginnings as a Burlington Railroad division point, and freight trains still form part of its working identity. Carhenge’s gray upright cars have made this small western Nebraska city a memorable road-trip stop, while the surrounding open country conveys the scale of the Great Plains.
