Trenton is a village in Hitchcock County, Nebraska, United States. The population was 516 at the 2020 census. It is the county seat of Hitchcock County.[4]

History[edit]

Weyl Service Station in Trenton. Built in 1921, it is now part of the Hitchcock County Museum. It is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.[5]

Trenton was platted in 1885 when the railroad was extended to that point.[6] It was named after Trenton, New Jersey.[7][8] Due to Trenton's location near the center of the county, and its position on the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad, the seat of Hitchcock County was transferred there from the first county seat, Culbertson.[9]

Geography[edit]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.58 square miles (1.50 km2), all land.[10]

Trenton Dam, impounding the Republican River, and its large reservoir called Lake Swanson, stand about two and one-half miles west of the city.
