THERE ARE A FEW NICE MURALS painted on buildings in Minden. This one is near the southwest corner of the town square. It depicts the town square in 1912.

Another pic shows the new (as of 2007) welcome signs at the edge of town. very nice.

And a third photo shows the mural on the ceiling of the Minden Opera House.

The fourth photo shows stars on the ceiling of the Opera House during a performance. There are even shooting stars that go across the ceiling. Pretty neat.
