The Retzlaff Farmstead is a historic estate in Walton, Nebraska. The farm was established in 1858 by Charles Retzlaff, an immigrant from Germany who had arrived in America four years earlier.[1] [2] [3] Retzlaff raised purebred Shorthorn cattle on the farm, and he "became one of the county's most prominent citizens."[1] By the late 1970s, the property belonged to the fourth generation of the same family.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since May 31, 1979.[3]
