World’s Largest Time Capsule

History:

In 1975, Harold Keith Davisson decided to bury the time capsule. Davisson decided to fill his time capsule with over 5,000 items that include, a man’s aquamarine leisure suit with stitched yellow flowers, and a brand-new Chevy Vega.

In 1983, Davisson decided to build a second time capsule right over the first time capsule under the protection of a concrete pyramid. He put a second car in the time capsule and many other things.

The time capsule is set to be opened up on July 4, 2025; 50 years after its burial.

This is a pretty awesome “exhibit” that might be cool to get out and take a picture of and look at some of the other cool things that are around the pyramid.

Address: 318 Hillcrest Dr. Seward, Ne.

Directions from I-80: Turn off on exit 379. Drive north on Highway 15 for six miles into the heart of Seward. 8 blocks after the intersection of Hwy 34 and Main Street, turn right onto Hillcrest Dr. The time capsule is about two blocks down, on the left side of the road.
