Florence

Florence has served as a railroad town in central Kansas since the 1870s. Set in the Cottonwood River valley in Marion County, it stands where US Route 50 meets Kansas Highway 150, while the BNSF railway still reflects the community’s transport heritage. The surrounding prairie forms part of the western Flint Hills, a tallgrass region of broad, rolling terrain contrasting with the river corridor. Florence’s historic downtown and former Santa Fe railway depot recall the period when rail links shaped small Kansas settlements.
