Brungardt-Dreiling Farmstead

2567 Golf Course Rd
Victoria vicinity (Ellis County)
Listed in National Register 2016-10-11

Architect: Linenberger, Joseph (builder)
Category: domestic
Thematic Nomination: Historic Agriculture Related Resources of Kansas

The Brungardt-Dreiling Farmstead is a rare, intact dairy farmstead owned by two Volga German immigrant families, the Brungardts and the Dreilings, for nearly a century. As the most prominent dairy farm operation in the Victoria area, the Brungardt-Dreiling Farmstead is an outstanding example of what the Volga German immigrants achieved after their initial years of poverty and struggle and their entrepreneurial success in both agriculture and business in the Herzog/Victoria area. The house is significant as an excellent local example of Queen Anne architecture. The barn is a fine example of the gambrel-roof barn style that emerged in the 1920s and 1930s. The other farmstead buildings are significant as they contribute to the whole of the farm operation. The period of significance extends over the ownership of the property by the Brungardt and Dreiling families from 1903 when Andreas Peter Brungardt purchased the property to 1960 when the farmstead acquired its current appearance.

Chestnut Street Historic District

Main, W. 9th, W. 10th, W. 11th, E 11th, E 12rh
Hays Vicinity (Ellis County)
Listed in National Register 2008-07-09

Architect: Speck Woods: Samuel W. Bihr, Jr.
Category: department store; financial institution; specialty store; post office; religious facility; business

The Chestnut Historic District consists of eighty-one contributing buildings in downtown Hays. With this update and boundary expansion, the period of significance will extend to 1972, allowing for the inclusion of Modern buildings constructed between 1955 and 1972. The district remains an outstanding collection of buildings that reflect the development of a western town, which continued from the immediate post-WWII era through the next three decades. With the inclusion of these mid-century buildings the district conveys the ability of a small downtown commercial center to compete and maintain its relevance during a period in which Americans continually looked to suburbia to meet their needs.
