About Ravenna

Ravenna got its start as a late-nineteenth-century railroad hub, taking its name from Ravenna, Italy. You can still see that connection today on the street signs, with avenues named after places like Milan, Genoa, and Verona. Over the decades, it has grown into a peaceful agricultural community with well-kept neighborhoods, local businesses along Grand Avenue, and an easy drive to nearby Kearney.

Town pride shines through during the annual Annevar festival every June. Named by spelling the town's name in reverse, the weekend celebration fills the calendar with parades, a demolition derby, tractor pulls, and carnival rides. Between its distinct roots and classic small-town friendliness, Ravenna offers an easygoing, welcoming atmosphere for anyone looking to settle down.
