Neligh is the county seat of Antelope County. The town was established in 1873 along the Elkhorn river by John D. Neligh. The water powered flour mill which was the economic anchor of the community for many years remains virtually intact as a State Historic Site.

While Neligh's outstanding park system, museums and historic sites make it an attractive tourist destination, it is a modern community in which to work and live. Two physicians, a dentist and an outstanding hospital provide health care. The town has a fine modern library, motels, restaurants, light manufacturing, K-12 schools, and is the headquarters of Educational Service Unit #8

The Cowboy Trail goes right past the park and downtown Main Street. It provides a delightful hiking/biking experience.
