Gretna Homes for Sale
Incorporated in 1889, Gretna was designed to take advantage of the Burlington Railroad’s rail line between Ashland and Omaha. It flourished and soon became a bustling center of trade in the area. Today, many residents commute to Omaha or Lincoln, both nearby centers of employment and industry, but return home to Gretna to enjoy the benefits of its tightly-knit community, excellent educational system, and quiet country charm.
