About

The Heartland Museum of Military Vehicles is located in Lexington, Ne.
We have a vast collection of historic military vehicles both inside and outside.
Dedicated to those who have served.

Story

The Heartland Museum of Military Vehicles (HMMV), a non-profit organization run by volunteers and funded by donations and grants.

The museum has about 100 vehicles including helicopters, tanks, halftracks, ambulances, and a jeep from every branch of the service plus displays of weapons, uniforms, engines, equipment, and more. The everyday necessities of a soldier's life, such as MREs, blend with unique vehicles like those used by the German army in World War II.

This hands-on museum invites you to see, touch, and even sit in vehicles that have been restored and, for the most part, are operational. Vehicles date from World War II but displays include items from World War I as well.

Products

Items in the gift shop include a rage of remote control helicopters and tanks. We also have practice hand grenades (inert), pins, patches, shirts, hats, and many other items.
Stop in to see the whole selection!

Really cool place you can actually go in a armored personnel tank like thing and a old helicopter from Vietnam. Older gentleman that runs the place is very friendly and will answer all your questions. Mock up of the old show MASH and a wide variety of tanks and such some dated back from WW1. Free to enter though highly recommend if you go he has a tip jar to drop a few bucks but there is no pressure if you don't and still want to see everything that is displayed inside and outside

A good sized museum with a nice display, both indoor and outdoor. The outdoor exhibits are only somewhat labeled, so you don't know what everything is. But the history contained there is good if you're into military vehicles.

Don't let the outside fool you. This is a really great museum, filled with some one-of-a-kind pieces. Very interesting . . . and FREE! Did you know we had a snow tank in the war? You'll see one here. Did you know we had gas masks for dogs and horses? You'll see it here.

Great experience. My 8yr old and I spent a couple hours looking around and can't wait to go back

They have some truly unusual items, but you have to look around carefully! They need more space and better labeling on the displays. If you know what you're looking at, it's a fantastic place, but if you don't know much about military weapons, vehicles, and gear, you won't fully understand or appreciate how great it really is!
